In Jesus’ day, women had no social status and were often assigned inferior roles. But the women who accompanied Jesus were happy to serve quietly and gave generously out of their resources. Key among them was Mary Magdalene (feast day: July 22). Father Chris Alar, MIC, shares the story of this future saint and how the notorious novel The Da Vinci Code got it so wrong. Then hear the incredible story of Courtney who, in her short life and amid terrible suffering, was a constant witness to love and the Face of Christ.

Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Wednesday at 6:30 pm EST, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am EST.
