St Mary of Egypt Novena
St Mary of Egypt lived seventeen years in grave sin until an encounter with the Mother of God at the Church of the Holy Sepulchre converted her completely. She spent the remaining forty-seven years of her life as a hermitess in the desert beyond the Jordan. Pray this novena for the grace of true conversion, for deliverance from temptations of the flesh, and for a holy death.
