The Magdalene Order of Melchizedek
The Primordial Tradition of Mysticism and Magic
Ancient tools and practices for attaining Divine Union.
The Magdalene Order of Melchizedek, created and facilitated by Lauri Ann Lumby, OM, OPM, MATS, is a two-year training program with the goal of supporting participants in attaining and maintaining Divine Union. Drawing from the ancient mystical system of the Kabbalah, participants will gain knowledge and effective tools for healing the deep inner separation that prevents them from knowing their true nature and origin in Love. Remembering union with Love, participants become a vessel through which wholeness and Love are made manifest in our world.
The Magdalene Order of Melchizedek is made up of six individual courses completed in succession (click on the images below for complete course descriptions – also summarized below)
The program also includes six one-on-one mentoring sessions with program creator and facilitator, Lauri Ann Lumby.
Each course includes scripture, reading, lecture, mindfulness and creativity exercises, instruction, practice and discussion. There are several required texts and the remainder of the work is completed online. The course is made to be completed in 90 weeks, but you may take as long as you need to complete the required work.

Financial Commitment
In traditional contemplative communities, formation is free to the participant but is paid for by the institutional church in which the participant is a member. This payment comes out of the wealth of the institution or is generated through the work of its vowed members.
As a secular order, we do not have the wealth of an institution or working members who are made to contribute their income to the operation of the order. As such, we are not able to provide formation for free. We do, however, recognize that each one called to the Order of the Magdalene formation program arrives here with a diversity of resources. As such, we have priced the program in a way that is financially accessible – significantly less than one might pay for courses of similar duration and depth.
