OUR MISSION
Rooted in the Charism
of St. Mary Magdalene
Rooted in contemplation, healing, justice, and hope — we announce new life wherever possible
““Her special mission was to preach about God’s liberating mercy.””
Mary Magdalene was the first to whom the Risen Christ appeared in the garden — and the first sent to tell the others what she had seen. She carried news of new life before anyone asked her to. We take her as our namesake and our model: an invitation to encounter Christ directly, and to announce that encounter with courage.
We are an inclusive Catholic faith community, led by Rev. Mary Michael Leahy, a Roman Catholic Woman Priest. We gather to worship, to grow spiritually, and to walk with one another — in liturgy, prayer, and shared action for peace and justice.
What We Believe
The first witness, the first sent
OUR VALUES
What guides how we gather
Radical Inclusion
All are cordially welcome, regardless of background or where you are on your spiritual journey.
Contemplation
We make room for quiet, prayer, and encounter — trusting that stillness has something to teach..
justice and Action
Faith moves us outward — toward peace, mercy, and care for one another and the world.
A LONG TRADITION
Following the women who came before
From Mary Magdalene to the women mystics and saints who followed her, our community draws on a long tradition of women's spiritual leadership within the Church — voices that have often gone unheard, but never stopped speaking.
