Acts 1:8, " But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth."

The Holy Spirit was given and entered the apostles 10 days ( Day of Pentecost) after Jesus ascended. The mission of spreading the Gospel of Jesus Christ was first given to them, that was their ministry (To be witnesses for Jesus). The Holy Spirit empowered them to do this. A witness is a person who tells the truth about Jesus Christ. All true Christians have the Holy Spirit dwelling within them and this is their power source, and have the responsibility to continue spreading the Gospel.
