So where is Pisidia again?

A Map of the Apostles' First Mission

Contrary to what you may have heard, Pisidia is not the destination for OLMC students participating in the High School Leadership & Service trip this June!!  But it is on the long list of places the apostles visit during their first mission to Asia Minor.  Both last week and this coming weekend, we hear about the apostles' first mission to share the Good News with communities as distant from each other as Antioch in Pisidia, Cyprus, and Antioch in Syria. (Yes, and to confuse us completely, there are two different Antiochs involved!)  To get a better sense of the distance traveled by Paul, Barnabas and John (and to locate Pisidia!), click on the map above and reread Acts 13:4 to Acts 14:28.
