"And the apostles gathered themselves together

unto Jesus, and told him all things, both what

they had done, and what they had taught.

And he said unto them, Come ye yourselves

apart into a desert place, and rest a while: for

there were many coming and going, and they

had no leisure so much as to eat."

Mark 6:30-31

This must have been an exciting time. The

things they told Jesus of what they had done

and taught was not recorded for us, so we

can only imagine what a great mission they

had.

We are told later of seventy who were sent

out and returned with joy saying even the

devils were subject to the name of Jesus.

These twelve were even closer to Jesus so

they must have had some great reports.
