ORDINATION DAY
SAINT BARNABAS Apostle
We read that in the first days of the Church,
"the multitude of believers had but one heart and one soul; neither did any one say that aught of the things which he possessed was his own." Of this fervent company, one only is singled out by name, Joseph, a rich Levite, from Cyprus. "He having land sold it, and brought the price and laid it at the feet of the apostles."
They now gave him a new name, Barnabas, the son of consolation.
