Commentary: St. Mary Magdalene is "a religious figure in Christianity"? What's next, will the bulletin announce that the pope is Catholic? Quoth the bulletin:
A religious figure in Christianity, Mary Magdalene travelled with Jesus as one of His followers. She is said to have witnessed Jesus's crucifixion & resurrection. Within the four Gospels she is named at least twelve times, more than most of the apostles.We also remember Saint John Lloyd (d. 1679) & Saint Philip Evans (1645-1679), priests & martyrs, martyred under King Charles II; like St. John Plessington (Wayback Machine), victims of the hysteria surrounding the non-existent "Popish Plot:" Martyr-link Juliet Lima & Martyr-link Papa Echo, Wikipedia-link.
