St Mary Magdalene

Mary did not follow God’s way before meeting Jesus, everyone in town believed she was a very big sinner. Her whole life changed when she met Jesus. He forgave her of all her sins and from then on she followed Jesus wherever he went, taking care of him and the Apostles. Mary Magdalene stayed with Jesus while he was crucified, even when all His Apostles, except for John, ran away because they were scared. Mary stayed at the foot of the cross with Jesus. On the third day after Jesus had been laid in the tomb, Mary went to the tomb to take care of Jesus’ body. When she got there, she found the tomb empty. Instead she saw two angles sitting where Jesus’ body should have been. The angles asked her why she was crying and she said, “They have taken my Lord away, and I do not know where they have put him.” She saw a man outside the tomb and thought that it was the gardener. She asked him if he had taken Jesus’ body from the tomb, and when the man looked at her and said her name, she knew right away that it was Jesus! Jesus was alive and appeared to Mary Magdalene first. He told her to go and tell the apostles that He was alive and she shared the Good News!
