17th ANNUAL SAINT MARY MAGDALENE CELEBRATION<a href="https://events.bc.edu/event/women-of-the-dawn-mary-magdalene-and-tonantzinour-lady-of-guadalupe" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Women of the Dawn: Mary Magdalene and Tonantzin/Our Lady of Guadalupe</a>
This celebration of the feast of St. Mary Magdalene begins with Mass and lunch, followed by a lecture.The Gospel of John describes Mary of Magdala approaching Jesus’ burial place “early” in the morning, “while it was still dark.” It speaks of an in-between time, pregnant with new hope and possibilities. She is the first to witness the Resurrection, to announce the Good News. Inspired by Mary of Magdala, in this presentation Sister Ana María Pineda, RSM introduces another “Woman of the Dawn,” Tonantzin, the ancient mother goddess of the indigenous world of the Americas, now called Our Lady of Guadalupe. Both women call us to reflect on the power of witness—testimonio—and how we are also called to announce the good news for all, especially the poor.
