St. Mary Magdalene is one of the most important female disciples of Christ, and the first to witness the resurrection. A faithful servant to Christ, and a reformed sinner, Mary Magdalene is a witness to the power of Christ's mercy.
At first she sought but did not find, but when she persevered it happened that she found what she was looking for. When our desires are not satisfied, they grow stronger, and becoming stronger they take hold of their object. Holy desires likewise grow with anticipation, and if they do not grow they are not really desires. Anyone who succeeds in attaining the truth has burned with such a great love. As David says: My soul has thirsted for the living God; when shall I come and appear before the face of God? And so also in the Song of Songs the Church says: I was wounded by love; and again: My soul is melted with love.
--Sermon by Pope St. Gregory the Great

I love love love whenever he's talking, because he IS a rockstar, but I hated how all they could talk about was how fat he was. come on, people.
His Excellency did a fantastic job in representing the Church, and didn't leave 60 Minutes with anything to spin. The only thing they had left to bash him about was his weight.
Oh, I love Archbishop Dolan. He is a rockstar. We need more Bishops like him in the American Church
