On February 26, 1905, Mother Mary Maddalena wrote the following letter to her heavenly friend, Saint Joseph, to whom she was very devoted:
My dear Saint Joseph,   For the love that you bore your Spouse, Mary, Virgin Immaculate, for the love that you  had for the Son of the Most High and who with  your Spouse was confided to you by the Heavenly Father, and by your Holy Submission to  the Divine Will of the Most Holy Trinity, I beseech you that you obtain for us a perfect life,  such as is expected of a Spouse of Jesus Crucified, a good and holy death for us all, conversion from all the spiritual miseries that obstruct the way of the true perfection. Also, O great Saint Joseph, obtain for us that by means of benefactors the building of the monastery be finished. Send us good postulants, who fear and love God, are fervent and prompt in the observance of the Holy Rule; also, the grace of vocation for two wavering ones, conversion for others, and relief to all.
            - Your most unworthy child, Mary Maddalena, Poor Clare
