The Apostle of the Apostles: A Retreat Guide on St. Mary Magdalene

Not sure how to use this retreat guide?

St. Mary Magdalene was a sinner (like all of us) washed in the merciful love of the Lord—and his love for her filled her with a great love for him. Christ chose this woman to tell his apostles the good news of his resurrection. She was as St. Thomas Aquinas called her, “the apostle of the apostles.”

We can learn a great deal from her story. We can grow in our relationship with the Lord she loved so much by reflecting on her life. And by her example and her intercession, we can become more joyful and committed witnesses to the risen Christ in our own lives too. We’ll follow this path for our Easter Retreat with St. Mary Magdalene
