The group Jesus set up was more than a fan club, it was an intentional gathering of Jewish men who were to become the beginning of the early Church. Replacing the fallen Judas with Matthias was important because, not only was it a prophetic moment, but the gap left with only 11 needed correcting. The places each of these apostles actually went in their journeys are the stories of legend, but the combined efforts that they shared created the Church that we have today.
