From what I undestand, the original apostles did not venture far outside of Palestine, it was subsequent disciples, such as Paul, that moved the word successfully to other parts of the world.

BTW - I'm sorry about my use of the "b" word in my original post.

Bob, we really need to get you some education on the early church. St. Peter was crucified upside down in ROME, and the site of St. Peter's basilica marks his grave.

Luke also travelled quite a bit, definitely to Greece, as did John. Bartholomew and Thomas are believed to have gone to India.
