Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint
Luke 9:1-6.
Jesus summoned the Twelve and gave them
power and authority over all demons and to
cure diseases,
and he sent them to proclaim the kingdom of
God and to heal the sick.
He said to them, "Take nothing for the
journey, neither walking stick, nor sack, nor
food, nor money, and let no one take asecond
tunic.
Whatever house you enter, stay there and
leave from there.
And as for those who do not welcome you,
when you leave that town, shake the dust
from your feet in testimony against them."
Then they set out and went from village to
village proclaiming the good news and curing
diseases everywhere.
