GospelMk
6:7-13
Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and
gave them authority over unclean spirits. He instructed them to take nothing for
the journey but a walking stick-- no food, no sack, no money in their belts. They
were, however, to wear sandals but not a second tunic. He said to them, “Wherever
you enter a house, stay there until you leave. Whatever place does not welcome
you or listen to you, leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony
against them.” So they went off and preached repentance. The Twelve drove out
many demons, and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them.
