- Notes
- "During the last half of the twentieth century the feast of Mary Magdalene was again included in the Anglican liturgical books, after having been absent since the year 1552." "Here I will consider the scripture readings, psalms and collects for the feast of Mary Magdalene used by ten Anglican liturgical books published in the late twentieth century, together with certain earlier Anglican texts and those of several other churches". Collects include come from the Anglican Church of Canada 1962 Book of Common Prayer and Anglican Church of Canada 1985 Book of Alternative Services.
- "With the recent popular interest in St. Mary Magdalene expressed in novels, films and other media, the following excerpt from the work of J.F. Henderson on historic liturgies may be of interest to Anglican, Lutheran and other readers. For those who have a particular interest in the subject of women in early Anglican liturgy his website is noted. J.
