About Mary Magdalene:
Mary Magdalene is a significant figure in the New Testament and a devoted follower of Jesus Christ. According to the Gospels, Mary Magdalene was present at the crucifixion of Jesus and was one of the first witnesses to His resurrection, receiving the message from the angel and later encountering the risen Christ in the garden. Her role as the ‘Apostle to the Apostles’ highlights her importance in early Christianity, as she was tasked with sharing the news of the resurrection with the disciples. Throughout history, Mary Magdalene has been venerated as a symbol of repentance, faith, and the transformative power of grace. Her feast day is celebrated on 22nd July, and she remains a figure of inspiration for many in the Christian faith.
