Paragraph 3. THE CHURCH IS ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC

From The Catechism of the Catholic Church

858
Jesus is the Father’s Emissary. From the beginning of his ministry, he
“called to him those whom he desired; …. and he appointed twelve, whom
also he named apostles, to be with him, and to be sent out to
preach.”³⁶⁸ From then on, they would also be his “emissaries”
(Greek apostoloi). In them, Christ continues his own mission: “As the
Father has sent me, even so I send you.”³⁶⁹ The apostles’ ministry
is the continuation of his mission; Jesus said to the Twelve: “he who
receives you receives me.”³⁷⁰
