    Come join Brigid's Place & The Magdalen Community in celebrating the Feast Day of St. Mary Magdalene! The event not only honors Mary Magdalene but also continues our exploration of the Charter for Compassion by examining the foundational concept of compassion for self as the cornerstone of compassion for others. Join us Sunday, July 25, 2010 at 6:00 p.m. at the Live Oaks Friends Meeting House.

    Celebrate the Feast Day of Mary the Magdalene as a wise woman, healer, myrrh bearer, and apostle of compassion. Participants will learn about Mary Magdalene’s legacy of compassion with a focus on the compassion for the self. The celebration will include remarks on Mary Magdalene, meditation, group discussion, and an opportunity for the participants to anoint and bless themselves and each other.

    Libations and refreshments will be served.

    “Then Mary arose, embraced them all, and began to speak to her brothers: ‘Do not remain in sorrow and doubt, for his Grace will guide you and comfort you. Instead, let us praise his greatness, for he has prepared us for this. He is calling upon us to become fully human’.” (Gospel of Mary, LeLoup translation)

    This event is brought to you by Brigid’s Place, an organization dedicated to the development of women in mind, body and spirit.
