The Bible does refer to certain women who joined the traveling company of Jesus to minister: It came to pass afterward, that he went throughout every city and village, preaching and shewing the glad tidings of the kingdom of God; and the twelve were with him.
Hindi binanggit sa Biblia na ang mga kababaihang kasama ni Jesus sa biyahe ay naglingkod o nangaral: At nangyari pagkatapos ng kaunting panahon, na Siya’y naglalakad sa mga bayan at mga nayon, na ipinangangaral at dinadala ang mabubuting balita ng kaharian ng Dios, at kasama Niya ang labingdalawa.
