Gospel text
Mk 6:7-13
Mk 6:7-13
Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits.
Gospel's Commentary
Today we see The Twelve, chosen by Jesus –Simon Peter, James, John…- as freshmen in their young vocation as Apostles. Jesus has chosen them to live with Him, to form them and, thus, all together, to spread the Good News of Salvation. Moreover, the Lord gives them strength to heal the sick and cast away demons.
- What a joy! God has saved me and wants to count on me to stand by others –friend, relatives… To keep their company along the good paths in this life, on our way to eternal life.
