1. When Jesus had called the Twelve together, he gave them power and authority to drive out all demons and to cure diseases,
2. and he sent them out to proclaim the kingdom of God and to heal those who were ill.
3. He told them: ‘Take nothing for the journey – no staff, no bag, no bread, no money, no extra shirt.
4. Whatever house you enter, stay there until you leave that town.
5. If people do not welcome you, leave their town and shake the dust off your feet as a testimony against them.’
