• They joined with the other believers and
  devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and
  fellowship, sharing in the Lords Supper and in
  prayer. A deep sense of awe came over them all,
  and the apostles performed many miraculous signs
  and wonders. And all the believers met
  together constantly and shared everything they
  had. They sold their possessions and shared
  the proceeds with those in
  need.

They worshiped together at the Temple each day,
met in homes for the Lords Supper, and shared
their meals with great joy and generosityall the
while praising God and enjoying the goodwill of
all the people. And each day the
Lord added to their group those who were
