Feast of St Mary Magdalene



Pope Francis announced back in June the celebration of the memorial of St Mary Magdalene, which takes place tomorrow, Friday, July 22, has been raised to the dignity of a liturgical Feast in our Church’s liturgical calendar.  The Church honors St Mary Magdalene as the first witness to the Resurrection, as the one who announced the event to the other Apostles.  St Thomas Aquinas called St Mary Magdalene “the apostle of the apostles.”   Join us at St James Catholic Church in Tupelo on Friday, July 22, 2016 in our celebration of the feast of St Mary Magdalene at 12:10 pm.  All are welcome.
