She and the other disciples followed Christ throughout his ministry, and she was there to hear the good news of his resurrection. http://biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark.16.9&version=NIV 2009-07-22T16:25:03-05:00 When Jesus rose triumphantly from the dead, he didn't appear before the mighty rulers of Rome or the lofty religious leaders of the day. Instead, he appeared to the same humble people he served every day of his life--in this case, his faithful follower Mary Magdalene, who he had earlier saved from demon possession.
