Adoration is love, and eucharistic adoration is love of Christ present in the Blessed Sacrament. In the Gospels there are few people who understand love for Jesus as well as Mary Magdalene, which is the reason she is a prophetess of eucharistic love. This work is an extended meditation on the life of Saint Mary Magdalene, known as the "Apostle to the Apostles" because the Risen Christ appeared to her first and then sent her to announce the Resurrection to the apostles. Based on the biblical texts traditionally associated with Mary Magdalene, this book helps readers to learn from her inspiring example and to enter more deeply into adoration of Jesus Christ truly present in the Blessed Sacrament. In telling the story of Mary Magdalene's profound conversion after a life so steeped in sin that the Lord had to expel seven demons from her soul, this book shows how she is a shining witness to the transforming power of an encounter with Jesus Christ. Mary Magdalene is the perfect model for those who have experienced the redeeming love of Christ and who seek to deepen their devotion to him and to the Eucharist.

Excerpt from The Acts of Saint Mary Magdalene: Considered, in a Series of Discourses, as Illustrating Certain Important Points of Doctrine The idea of the series was conceived by the Author when serving his first cure, in 1844, at S. John's, Westminster, and preparing discourses for the pulpit and was kept before his mind, he trusts, by the gracious Spirit of god, until it has gradually developed into the connected View of the scriptural details of S. Mary Magdalene's life furnished in the present volume. The sermons have undergone con siderable amendments and additions since their com position for the pulpit; and as, besides this, two of them were never preached, they have, therefore, the less right to claim any interest from the several places of their delivery. Suffice it, therefore, gene rally, to say that they were delivered before metro politan congregations, in the years 1844, 1846, and in the present year.
