“The Magdalene, most of all, is the model I like to follow. That boldness of hers, which would be so amazing if it weren’t the boldness of a lover, won the heart of Jesus, and how it fascinates mine!”

                         ~St. Therese of Lisieux

For Reflection:

In what specific way can I, like Mary Magdalene, “boldly” show my love for Jesus today? When I do, I will thank “the Magdalene” for her good example. 

The Authority of Women in the Catholic Church

by Monica Miller; PB 202 pgs Click Here For More Information 

"Perhaps at no other time in the history of the Church has there been a greater need for a clear, cogent understanding of the authority of the female person and from whence it derives. In her work, Dr. Monica Migliorino Miller cuts through the chimera put forth by the culture of the day and reveals the source of woman's influence, effect, and power, and why woman can "aid humanity in not falling" and "save the peace of the world." A challenging, hard-hitting, and completely liberating study of the authority of woman!"
