ONE OF THE TWELVE - DOUBTING THOMAS

 

One of the twelve

Doubting Thomas

Sometimes called

Didymus the Twin

Or the Apostle of India

Was a carpenter by trade

Witness of the ascension

Who was gently rebuked

After the resurrection

For his scepticism by Christ

Before exclaiming

“My Lord and My God,”

Thomas was the only witness

Of the Assumption

Of Mary into heaven

He then spread the Gospels

Far and wide

But was stabbed to death

With a spear

While in India

At a place called Calamine
