Acts 11:19-21

The Church at Antioch

19 1So then those who were scattered because of the persecution that occurred in connection with Stephen made their way to 2Phoenicia and 3Cyprus and 4Antioch, speaking the word to no one except to Jews alone.
20 But there were some of them, men of 5Cyprus and 6Cyrene, who came to 7Antioch and began speaking to the 8Greeks also, 9preaching the Lord Jesus.
21 And 10the hand of the Lord was with them, and 11a large number who believed turned to the Lord.
