Dispatch

"Take nothing for your journey, no staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money—not even an extra tunic." (Luke 9:3)
Jesus not only sends us out, but He also tells us to become part of the community.  He tells us to take nothing, which is important, especially because He is telling us not to take our prejudices or our own emotional baggage with us.  He tells us to go into the community and stay if we are welcomed.  Therefore, He tells us to go and make friends and to build up w community, for God's love is the best display of the gospel.  Once we show God's love, God will take care of the rest.
