Abstract

The article presents Saint Mary Magdalene as a patron of the Three-city hairdressers and the cult of her among them. The Three-cities hairdressers meet eachother for 10 years already to cultivate Her at the ceremonial Mass conducted by archbishop Tadeusz Gocłowski. The hymns ment for St. Mary Magdalene are being sang there among which are the orthodox Acatyst and the hairdressers hymn. The meeting’s organizers especially Jan Siedlik and Janina Husarek want this Mary Magdalene’s cult to be the creator of some wordly items as well. The painting and an icon has been founded, a CD with songs and a book about Mary Magdalene has been published. The Three-cities hairdressers do whatever they can to consolidate the memory about this Saint among the congregation.
