Early on Easter morning, Mary Magdalene visited Jesus' tomb to mourn her departed friend. The grief she carried turned to shock when she discovered the tomb was empty.

Distraught and confused, Mary began to weep. When she encountered who she thought was the gardener, she made an incredible discovery - it was Jesus himself, risen from the dead. This transformative moment made Mary Magdalene the first witness to Jesus' resurrection and the first person to proclaim the Good News of His rising to the disciples.

Her story demonstrates how profound sorrow can transform into overwhelming joy through faith. As the first messenger of Christ's resurrection, Mary Magdalene's experience remains a cornerstone of Christian faith and hope.
