The First Apostle Did you know your calling? When He first met you Demonized-Prostitute Transformed by His healing hand Your love-turned passion Inseparably bound to his being Scorned for your lavish yearning Prophetically anointing perfume-blood Head to hands to dusty broken feet Your walk with Him closer to death The rugged weight of dry wood Heavy heart anointed in knowing tears You stood by his side-abandoned By pharisaical disciples cowards call His love grafted into bone and sinew The empty mocking tomb Like your barren heart Devoid-all you lived for Rudely taken away Then He touches you again With glorious anointing Head to heart to weary feet With apostolic "Go-Tell" command Demonized-Prostitute Apostle-Evangelist Stanley Arumugam

Mary Magdalene (original Greek Μαρία ἡ Μαγδαληνή),[2] or Mary of Magdala and sometimes The Magdalene, is a religious figure in Christianity. She is usually thought of as the second-most important woman in the New Testament after Mary, the mother of Jesus.[3] Mary Magdalene traveled with Jesus as one of his followers. She was present at Jesus' two most important moments: the crucifixion and the resurrection.[4] Within the four Gospels, the oldest historical record mentioning her name, she is named at least 12 times,[5] more than most of the apostles. The Gospel references describe her as courageous, brave enough to stand by Jesus in his hours of suffering, death and beyond.[3] WIKIPEDIA
