Then the disciples, each according to his ability, determined to send relief to the brethren dwelling in Judea.

This they also did, and sent it to the elders by the hands of Barnabas and Saul.

Now in the church that was at Antioch there were certain prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon who was called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

Then, having fasted and prayed, and laid hands on them, they sent [them] away.

And when they arrived in Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the Jews. They also had John as [their] assistant.

Now when Paul and his party set sail from Paphos, they came to Perga in Pamphylia; and John, departing from them, returned to Jerusalem.

Now Barnabas was determined to take with them John called Mark.

So, when he had considered [this,] he came to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose surname was Mark, where many were gathered together praying.

She who is in Babylon, elect together with [you,] greets you; and [so does] Mark my son.
