“Jesus summoned his Twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits to drive them out and to cure every disease and every illness. The names of the Twelve Apostles are these: first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew; James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John; Philip and Bartholomew, Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus; Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus. Jesus sent out these Twelve after instructing them thus, “Do not go into pagan territory or enter a Samaritan town. Go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel. As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.’” -Matthew 10:1-7
 
So the order went from bishop to bishop, priest to priest, layman to layman. Until now, the order rests on you and me. Go to the lost sheep and proclaim, ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand!’
 
For many, your voice may be the only one they ever hear speaking the Good News.
