Saint of Relapse

 Mary Magdalene, the person who first announced that Jesus was risen, is the saint of relapse.  She was saved from seven devils it says in the Gospel.  That is, she was saved seven times from something she could not get rid of by her own power.  She kept relapsing until she didn’t.  After seven times falling back into here addictive behavior, she won out and became quite a person committed to transformation by listening and practicing what her guide, Jesus, told her and did by his own example.  She became selflessly loving and loyal.  She was of service to Jesus by keeping him company while he died an agonizing death on a cross.  So if you keep relapsing, she has your back.  There is always hope, as long as you are still alive.
