 Jesus called together his 12 special workers. He told them, You have to go to every town and tell my message to the people. Let them take care of you when you go there. Dont take a bag, or food, or money, or spare clothes with you. Just take your shoes and a walking stick. After you get to a town, if the people in that town are happy for you to stay there, just stay in one house. Dont move around to different houses. But if the people in that town dont want you to be there, and if they will not listen to you, then you have to go away from that town. As you leave it, shake the dirt off your feet. That will show those people that they will get trouble. It will be like you are telling them, You didnt take any notice of my message, so God will judge you and punish you. And Jesus told his special workers, Im giving you my power to force bad spirits out from people. Then Jesus split them up into 6 teams with 2 men in each team, and he sent them out to do Gods work.
