Acts 15:30-41
30So when they were sent off, they went down to Antioch, and having gathered the congregation together, they delivered the letter.
31And when they had read it, they rejoiced because of its encouragement.
32And Judas and Silas, who were themselves prophets, encouraged and strengthened the brothers with many words.
33And after they had spent some time, they were sent off in peace by the brothers to those who had sent them.

35But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, teaching and preaching the word of the Lord, with many others also.
36And after some days Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us return and visit the brothers in every city where we proclaimed the word of the Lord, and see how they are.”
37Now Barnabas wanted to take with them John called Mark.
38But Paul thought best not to take with them one who had withdrawn from them in Pamphylia and had not gone with them to the work.
39And there arose a sharp disagreement, so that they separated from each other. Barnabas took Mark with him and sailed away to Cyprus,
40but Paul chose Silas and departed, having been commended by the brothers to the grace of the Lord.
41And he went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.
