Last week we heard where the 12 Apostles journeyed to throughout the world.  From Spain to India.  From Ethiopia to Armenia.  Today, we look at what is commonly known among Christians as the Great Commission found in Matthew 28:16-20 where Jesus tells the eleven to "Go and make disciples of all nations...."  This was the beginning of the Christian movement.  Perhaps it was not as simple as it seems.  We know this movement NOW, as the Christian Church, and cannot conceive of it as it first started out.  Even as the disciples went to the appointed mountain to meet with Jesus, the text says that that "some doubted."  What did they doubt?  Their ability? the truth? Jesus? the reality of it all? But then, some exciting things happened to them.  And, when they went out, they could not "go and make disciples" if it were not for two important things.  1. The prayers of the believers and 2. their offerings, both money and material needs, for the needy.  We look at how prayer and offerings is mentioned by St. Paul, almost inseparably, in these early beginnings of the Church. How do you support the proclamation of Jesus Christ as Savior as part of your congregation?  How do you pray for your pastor and congregation to remain as living witnesses of the Gospel today?  Listen to the details!
