Good words for Good Friday.

Women most certainly were present at
The Last Supper.

Leonardo Da Vinci’s painting fails to represent what would most certainly have taken place.
Not Lamb, but Fish
No Wine
There would not have been Marble columns
Children would ask the “4 Questions.”

Women were actively doing ministry in and before Jesus’ day.

Deborah was a Judge in Israel.

Women were last at the Cross.
Women were First at the Tomb.

Mary is the First Evangelist: she meets the risen Jesus, and runs to tell the disciples.

As Lutheran Seminarian, Olivia Clark said, “ Women should be ordained.”
