5th Sunday of Pentecost
The Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ
according to Saint Matthew 10:1-7
Then Jesus summoned his twelve disciples and gave them
authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to cure
every disease and every sickness. These are the names of the
twelve apostles: first, Simon, also known as Peter, and his brother
Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John;
Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax-collector;
James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon the Cananaean,
and Judas Iscariot, the one who betrayed him.
These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions:
‘Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town
of the Samaritans, but go rather to the lost sheep of the
house of Israel. As you go, proclaim the good news,
"The kingdom of heaven has come near."
