Monday in the Octave of Easter

Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went away quickly from the tomb, fearful yet overjoyed, and ran to announce the news to his disciples. And behold, Jesus met them on their way and greeted them. They approached, embraced his feet, and did him homage. Then Jesus said to them, “Do not be afraid. Go tell my brothers to go to Galilee, and there they will see me.” (Mt 28:8-15)

How important are Mary Magdalene and the other faithful women! They are the first to receive the good news, the first to have an encounter with the Risen Lord, and the first to receive the apostolic mission to go and tell. They saw, they heard, they proclaimed! With these three verbs, may we too enter into the passover of the Lord from death to life.
