Women of the Resurrection
Join us as we explore Scripture to study the lives of these remarkable women and discuss the virtues they exemplified after being transformed by the Risen Christ.
Throughout the New Testament, we encounter women whose faith, courage, and devotion played a vital role in the ministry of Jesus and the early Christian community. Their stories challenge the cultural norms of their time and highlight the profound impact of women in the life of the Church.

Women Who Walked with Christ
Mary Magdalene
Mary Magdalene is one of the most well-known women in the Gospels. Once healed by Jesus (Luke 8:2), she became one of His most devoted followers. She was present at the crucifixion and was the first to witness the resurrected Christ (John 20:1–18). Because she was entrusted with sharing this news, she is often called the “apostle to the apostles.”
Lois and Eunice
Lois and Eunice are praised by Paul for their deep faith and for passing it down to Timothy, a young disciple and leader in the early Church (2 Timothy 1:5). Their story reminds us of the importance of nurturing faith in the next generation.
Priscilla
A leader in the early Christian community, Priscilla worked alongside her husband, Aquila, and the Apostle Paul. She is recognized for her role in teaching and evangelization, demonstrating that women played an essential part in spreading the Gospel (Acts 18:24–26).
