MARY MAGDALENE

 

 

Outside of Jesus’ own mother

Mary Magdalene was probably

Jesus’ BEST FRIEND

 

She is often called

THE APOSTLE TO THE APOSTLES

Because he appeared to her first

And she carried to the news

To the rest of the men

 

Mary said to the gardener

NOT KNOWING he was Jesus,

 

“Sir, if you carried him away

Tell me where you have put him

And I will get him”                                                          John 20:15

 

The gardener then said, “Mary”

 

Mary then turned toward him

And cried out, “Rabboni,” which means Teacher                      John 20:16

 

She then went to tell the others

The news,

 

“I have seen the Lord”                                                         John 20:18

 

Jesus had been Mary’s teacher

About the Word of God

And it is said,

He cast out, “seven demons” from her

 

She may have been the sister

To Martha of Bethany and Lazarus

And anointed Christ’s feet

 

It is known

That she was present

At the crucifixion of Jesus

Along with his mother, the BELOVED disciple,

And some other women

 

She is

Considered to be

The patron Saint of repentant sinners

And of the contemplative life

 

May we FIND PEACE in Christ

As our sister, Mary Magdalene, did

 

The feast day of Saint Mary Magdalene is July 22nd

Ps        CONTRARY to popular fiction in the modern day world-Mary Magdalene

            Was NOT JESUS’ wife-NOT his girlfriend-and definitely NOT the mother

            Of his baby

 

            SHE was HIS CLOSE friend-perhaps HIS BEST FRIEND because of

            The healing he had done in her-AND SHE BELIEVED IN HIM-perhaps

            The REASON WHY he appeared to her first
