Episode 96 with Fr. Bruce Niely Father Bruce is a Paulist priest (The Missionary Society of St. Paul the Apostle) in the Austin, Texas area. He has led an exciting life and is the spiritual director for the EADM DM cenacles of prayer in the Austin area. He is a Missionary of Mercy priest, has done work in NYC after 9/11, works often with border towns and immigrants, and did pastoral work after the Uvalde shootings recently.
The encounter between Mary Magdalene and Jesus has been called the encounter "between misery and mercy." She initially washed His feet out of contrition, and after His death, out of respect and adoration. She stayed with Our Blessed Mother at the Crucifixion. She didn't run off like the apostles.
