Almighty God, whose blessed Son restored Mary Magdalene to health of body and mind, and called her to be a witness of his resurrection: Mercifully grant that by thy grace we may be healed of all our infirmities and know thee in the power of his endless life; who with thee and the Holy Spirit liveth and reigneth, one God, now and for ever.
Today's the feast of St Mary Magdalene, recorded in all canonical gospels and elsewhere as a follower of Christ, and by tradition as the 'Apostle to the Apostles'. In Swiss glass of c1350 in the Burrell Collection, Glasgow, she holds a pot of ointment, her conventional symbol. pic.twitter.com/kzlMTNZnao
