John did not go on missionary journeys. That is why he, alone among the Apostles, died of a natural death.
That is not what I asked..I asked how did ALL 12 APOSTLES HGET TO THE BEDSIDE OF MARY when she dies? How did they learn of her impending death and get there in time??
On John...He preached in Jerusalem, and later, as bishop of Ephesus, south of Izmir in western Turkey, worked among the churches of Asia Minor. During the reigns of either Emperor Nero (AD54-68) or Domitian (AD81-96), he was banished to the nearby island of Patmos, now one of the Greek islands in the Aegean Sea. He was subsequently freed and died a natural death at Ephesus c AD100.
