St. Mary Magdalene

Novena to St. Mary Magdalene

O Holy Mary of Magdala, companion of the Lord, disciple of the divine presence, first witness of the Resurrection, Apostle to the Apostles, O woman of love who opened thy heart to the healing and cleansing light of the Savior, through your intercession and love may we also be cleansed and healed of all darkness, desire, and ignorance. May our hearts be liberated from bondage to the powers of death, the weight of matter, and the foolish pride of earthly logic. May we be lifted from all anger and wrath into the sphere of heavenly wisdom where we may share in the divine presence and work together with all the holy daughters of Jerusalem. Grant our heart’s desire,

(here mention your request)

May the glorious merits of blessed Mary Magdalene, we beseech Thee, O Lord, raise our prayers before Thee, for Thine alone-begotten Child willed graciously to accept the humble service she rendered by a heart-felt anointing of the Holy Feet of Jesus. We ask this through the One Who liveth and reigneth with Thee and the Holy Ghost, God forever and ever. R. Amen.
