Acts 11:25-30

25Then Barnabas went to Tarsus to look for Saul.

26When Barnabas found him, he brought him back to Antioch. For one whole year, Barnabas and Saul met together with the group of believers there. They taught very many of them about Jesus. Antioch was the first place where the believers were called Christians.

27During this time, some prophets travelled from Jerusalem to Antioch.

28One of these men was called Agabus. The Holy Spirit gave him a message from God. He stood up and he said to the people there, ‘Soon people will be very hungry all over the world because there will be no food.’ (That happened when Claudius ruled the Roman world.)

29The believers in Antioch wanted to help the other believers who lived in Judea. Each of them decided how much of their own money they could give.

30Then they gave the money to Barnabas and Saul. Barnabas and Saul took this gift to the leaders of the believers in Jerusalem.
