On the third week after Easter, the Church honors the memory of Marys who went to see the sepulcher, bearing species. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

They also were with Christ on His Way to the Cross and after the crucifixion, went to anoint the Body of the Savior with fragrant ointment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abNow when the Sabbath was past, Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome bought spices, that they might come and anoint Him\u00bb.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Walking to the tomb of the Lord, the women said among themselves, \u00abWho will roll away the stone from the door of the tomb for us?\u00bb They didn\u2019t know that before their arrival, an Angel had rolled it away and made the guards leave their post in horror. The God's messenger told them that Christ had risen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u00abBut go, tell His disciples - and Peter - that He is going before you into Galilee; there you will see Him, as He said to you\u00bb.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
