LISTEN | Morning Prayer - July 29, 2023 | Memorial of Sts. Martha, Mary and Lazarus
Martha was the sister of Mary of Bethany and Lazarus. In the West, her feast day comes a week after that of St Mary Magdalene because of the old and probably erroneous tradition that Mary Magdalene was the same person as Martha’s sister.
Modern scholarship having made matters clearer, Martha, Mary and Lazarus have since 2021 been celebrated together on this day, which was formerly assigned to Martha alone.
Sts. Martha, Mary and Lazarus, pray for us!
