Introduction

Mission Impossible ...

Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted.
Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.  Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
Matthew 28:16-20a NIV

Totally ludicrous command to a small group of Galileans! Absolutely no chance at all.


... made possible
And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.Matthew 28:10b NIV


Border case
The passion of St. Perpetua and St. Felicity is located on two different but intertwining borders - the catechumens studying at the border between the expanding Kingdom of Heaven and the paganism of early 3rd century AD Carthage and a young woman with her friends at the final days of life at the gates of Death.
