St. Mary Magdalene Equal to the Apostles:

is a special reformed Catholic community in the Episcopal Diocese of Colorado celebrating in Word and Sacraments God's love shown to all of us in Jesus Christ and committed to a generous Orthodoxy. When you feel lost, we can be your home.

"Love to the end and love without exception"

(St. Maria of Paris)

Welcome to St. Mary Magdalene Equal to the Apostles Episcopal Church!

Whether young or old, rich or poor, whatever your gender identity or sexual orientation, you are welcome here. Wherever you come from, whatever the color of your skin, your ethnic background or your cultural heritage you are welcome here.

We Are Moving!

First, many, many thanks to Kym our presiding bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Colorado for receiving our community into the Anglican communion. Second, we deeply appreciate SS Peter and Mary Episcopal Church for graciously hosting and accommodating us these past two years. Equally, thank you St John Chrysostom Episcopal Church and Father Doug Bleyle for the hearty welcome to partner with them and for allowing us to have a dedicated space for the Eastern liturgy. All our Holy Week services will be at St. John Chrysostom Episcopal Church in Golden. In April, we will split the Sunday services between the two locations (See our schedule for details). In May, we will be permanently at our new location.
