Ask God for help in following the example of St. Mary Magdalene, "apostle of the apostles."
While little is definitively known about St. Mary Magdalene, except from a few brief passages in scripture, her actions speak very loudly of her faithfulness to Jesus Christ.

Here is the collect prayer for her feast, which asks God for help in imitating her example.
