For 22 January 2021, Friday of week 2 in Ordinary Time, based on Mark 3:13-19
Jesus went up the mountain and called to him those whom he wanted, and they came to him. And he appointed twelve, whom he also named apostles, to be with him, and to be sent out to proclaim the message, and to have authority to cast out demons. So he appointed the twelve: Simon (to whom he gave the name Peter); James son of Zebedee and John the brother of James (to whom he gave the name Boanerges, that is, Sons of Thunder); and Andrew, and Philip, and Bartholomew, and Matthew, and Thomas, and James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus, and Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.

Sister, I work with prisoners in the USA and am interested in sharing your comments on the apostles and how they are called. I am doing a scripture study with the prisoners and would like to encourage them to take up the call to spread the Word of God after they are released.
