When they were scattered by persecution they went forth filled with missionary zeal. They realized the responsibility of their mission. They knew that they held in their hands the bread of life for a famishing world; and they were constrained by the love of Christ to break this bread to all who were in need. The Lord wrought through them. Wherever they went, the sick were healed and the poor had the gospel preached unto them.

Da de blev adspredt ved forfølgelsen, drog de ud opfyldt af missionsiver. De var klare over, hvor ansvarsfuld deres opgave var. De vidste, at de medbragte livets brød til en hungrende verden, og Kristi kærlighed tvang dem til at dele dette brød med alle, som var i nød. Herren arbejdede gennem dem. Hvor de kom hen, blev de syge helbredt og evangeliet blev prædiket for de fattige.
