Acts 11:21-30

21 The hand of the Lord was with them, and a great number became believers and turned to the Lord.
22 News of this came to the ears of the church in Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch.
23 When he came and saw the grace of God, he rejoiced, and he exhorted them all to remain faithful to the Lord with steadfast devotion;
24 for he was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and of faith. And a great many people were brought to the Lord.
25 Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul,
26 and when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch. So it was that for an entire year they met with the church and taught a great many people, and it was in Antioch that the disciples were first called "Christians."
27 At that time prophets came down from Jerusalem to Antioch.
28 One of them named Agabus stood up and predicted by the Spirit that there would be a severe famine over all the world; and this took place during the reign of Claudius.
29 The disciples determined that according to their ability, each would send relief to the believers living in Judea;
30 this they did, sending it to the elders by Barnabas and Saul.
