Introduction
“The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had ordered them. When they saw him, they worshiped, but they doubted. Then Jesus approached and said to them, ‘All power in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age.’” (MT 28:16-20)
With those words the Disciples were commissioned by Jesus to continue his work. Through water washing over us and the words, “I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,” we have been commissioned. As contemporary Missionary Disciples we are sent to make the person and message of Jesus known, to invite people to join us in following Him, and to continue the work of furthering the Kingdom of God, already in our midst, closer to its fulfillment at the end of time.
