Jesus said to her, “Go to my brothers and tell them, ‘I am going to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” Mary went and announced to the disciples, “I have seen the Lord,” and then reported what he had told her. (Jn 20:11-18)

Padre is getting old. I sent out today’s reflection yesterday. I’m sure that Mary Magdalene will forgive me. After all the centuries she was slandered by the “Fathers” of the church, we can never praise her faith and devotion enough. Finally, her memorial has been raised to the rank of a feast, equal to the apostles, because she is. https://youtu.be/YoIgNsfC1qc?si=CKaNENVSJ6NpQ2GW
These reflections are a result of more than 40 years of ministry as a Roman Catholic priest. Most of these years I spent in the Diocese of Charlotte which covers Western North Carolina. Now I am retired, and live in Medellín, Colombia where I continue to serve as a priest in the Archdiocese of Medellín.
