The Pilgrim: On the Trail of Mary Magdalene

A heart warming tale of overcoming one’s own self sabotage and the power of friendship. Ever since Anne Lagerfeld read about Mary Magdalene and the promises of healing if she becomes a pilgrim, she cannot thing of anything else. But life is not making it easier for her. Envy at the office, a difficult needy mother, a past that comes knocking at the door, has her in a wirlwhind. Legend has it that after Christ’s crucifixion, Mary Magdalene and others were pushed into a rudderless boat and shoved out into the turbulent Mediterranean Sea. The vessel drifted away, never to be seen again. The group of outcasts sailed deep into the mercy of the night. Miraculously, the boat docked at sunrise on the shores of a fishing village that is today called Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. Now, a new group of women want to follow on Her path. So is Anne Lagerfeld. But the Path is not for the faint-hearted. Only those courageous enough to confront their past and all its consequences should apply.
