“But we will give ourselves continually to prayer, and to the ministry of the word.”
'and will give our attention to prayer and the ministry of the word' - the apostolic vocation is explicitly defined as 'prayer and the ministry of the word' (tē proseuchē kai tē diakonia tou logou). Prayer precedes proclamation; the apostles are intercessors and witnesses. This sequence indicates that prayer is foundational: witness arises from intercession with God.
