Mark 6:9

7 Then Jesus called the Twelve to Him and began to send them out two by two, giving them authority over unclean spirits.

8 He instructed them to take nothing but a staff for the journey—no bread, no bag, no money in their belts—

and to wear sandals, but not a second tunic.

10 And He told them, “When you enter a house, stay there until you leave that area.

11 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to you, shake the dust off your feet when you leave that place, as a testimony against them.”
