Arrive early at 5:30 for a light soup dinner.
Enter into the Holy Wednesday narrative of Mary Magdalene anointing Jesus. After a brief time of welcome, we will enter into a Contemplative Remembrance of this act that Jesus said, “truly, I say to you, wherever the gospel is proclaimed in the whole world, what she has done will be told in memory of her.” (Mark 14:9) There will be chant, readings, silence, and a time for anointing yourself and anyone else who is with you.
If you are following at home, consider having these items:
- Altar candle and matches/lighter
- Anointing Oil (or some kind of oil for anointing)
- Vase with a rose or other flower (optional)
- Icon of Mary Madgalene (optional)
