St. Mary Salome (d. 1st century) was the mother of John, surnamed Mark, who is mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles. Her home in Jerusalem was a gathering place for the Apostles. Peter went to Mary's home when he was released from prison by King Herod. She is named by Mark as present at the crucifixion and as one of the women who found Jesus's tomb empty.

St. Mary please pray for us to have a good relationship with Jesus like you did.
