Prayer to Saint Mary Magdalene for Converts
Mary Magdalene's story is one of dramatic turning — from a life in disorder to becoming the first witness of the Resurrection, called by tradition "the apostle to the apostles." She is a natural patroness for anyone in the middle of their own turn back toward faith.
Saint Mary Magdalene, you who loved much and were forgiven much, you who stood weeping at the empty tomb until Christ himself called you by name — pray for me, and for all who are turning back to him. Help us not to be ashamed of our past, but to let it become, as yours did, the very reason we run toward him now. Amen.
