Jesus Appointed the 12 Apostles (2 Marks)
Jesus called twelve disciples to lead his followers. He called them ‘Apostles’ and gave them the special spiritual gifts and
responsibilities they needed to lead their fellow Christians.
As the Apostles exercised their responsibilities and spiritual gifts, it would be Jesus who was leading his Church through
them.

Jesus wanted to support his followers personally throughout time. For this reason he wanted the Apostles to pass on the
special spiritual gifts and responsibilities to others through the Sacrament of Holy Orders.
The Apostles celebrated this sacrament by laying their hands on the head of the man who was to receive the spiritual
gifts Jesus rst gave them and then saying a prayer of special consecration.
In their turn, in the same way this person would pass on to others the spiritual gifts rst given by Jesus to the Apostles.
