MARCH NEWSLETTER

Mary Magdalene and John the Son of Zebedee; two people who were close to Jesus, who accompanied Jesus on His journey to the Cross. Magdalene, which means "Tower" and John, called a "Son of Thunder"; a woman and a man, both who were at the Last Supper, at the Cross, and at the empty tomb. Mary and John, who felt Jesus' forgiveness and love, who witnessed Jesus' miracles and Jesus' compassion, and who became apostles proclaiming the good news to the world.
