That is awesome thanks for sharing.
I have a friend who hates the number 13 because it is bad luck, she has faith I told her how can it be bad luck when there was 13 disciples Mary Magdalene was one also .

I would disagree, Jesus had many faithful followers but 12 were ordained to carry on the faith
Matthias was chosen to replace Judas making 12.

Well when I was growing up was told that, but hey guess everyone has different view's in it. Myself it don't matter 12-13 don't change what my faith is. But thanks for your insight!
You are very right. Everyone has their own beliefs. I was only stating from a biblical account.

Just an Easter gift someone sent to me about the Women of the Cross.
The women never left. Apostles or not, they never left Him.
Excerpt.
Luke tells us that “A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him” (Luke 23:27). And John tells us “Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother, his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary Magdalene” (John 19:25).
By my count, there are seven women who are identified in the four gospels, but we know there were many others as well. It’s interesting to me that the women are named, and yet there are no named men at the cross. Certainly there were men there, but how many were the friends and disciples of Jesus Christ? We only know for sure that John was there, because Jesus refers to him in John 19, as he instructs him to care for his mother. Where were the other disciples?
And why were all these women there at this ugly scene? It was not a place for a woman; unless it was your close relative, no woman would have gone to such a horrible place. Yet there were all these women at the cross of Jesus. These women had gathered there to mourn and to wail the crucifixion of their Savior, Jesus Christ.
They were there because they loved Jesus. They had been delivered from their sins and their pasts by Jesus, and they were determined to stay with him until the end, as ugly as it was. Can you even imagine what it meant for these women to stay there throughout the whole crucifixion?

This video give's me chills. How awesome to be able to visually walk into such a Holy place.
I imagine it was horrific but I also imagine that it was an Honor for these women to stand by The Christ until the end.
