PRAYER TO SAINT MARY MAGDALENE
Saint Mary Magdalene,
woman of many sins, who by conversion
became the beloved of Jesus,
thank you for your witness
that Jesus forgives
through the miracle of love.
You, who already possess eternal happiness
in His glorious presence,
please intercede for me, so that some day
I may share in the same everlasting joy.
in His glorious presence,
please intercede for me, so that some day
I may share in the same everlasting joy.
Amen.
WHO IS MARY MAGDALENE?
St. Mary Magdalene’s feast day is July 22 and it can be said that hers was perhaps Jesus’ greatest conversion of a woman. She is named at least 12 times in the four Gospels, which is more than most of the apostles. Jesus loved her and she loved him all the way to the foot of the cross, where most of his disciples abandoned him. Let us investigate why she is such a powerful saint and has earned the nickname the “Apostle to the Apostles”.
