Mary Magdalen and the Risen Savior
March 14, 9:00am-11:30am
$20 preregistered/prepaid, includes dinner.
What happened in the garden on Easter Sunday morning? Mary Magdalen’s journey of faith led her to the encounter with the Risen Christ on Easter morning. Her life of penance, discipleship, and ardent longing of love for Jesus, prepared her for this encounter. Based on Medieval Franciscan art and spirituality, the presentation will offer a reflection on Mary Magdalen as a model of faith, hope, and love.
