“The gift of apostleship is bestowed upon each member of the Church on the day of his Baptism and Chrismation. If we call our Church “apostolic” it is because She is sent, “apostle” meaning “sent by God.” It is because She is sent in Her totality, and this means in all Her members, into the world to preach the Gospel of Christ, to manifest His presence, to fulfill the salvation which He accomplished. In this sense, we all are apostolic and apostles. We all carry the responsibility for the apostolicity of the Church.”
(Fr. Alexander Schmemann + in comments on St. Innocent)
