The word 'Apostle' comes from the Greek meaning 'one who is sent out'. The term 'Apostle' normally refers to the 12 closest followers of Jesus, but strictly speaking an apostle is anyone who goes out to preach the good news of Jesus Christ's salvation. That is why even Paul (who was not one of the original '12') still called himself an apostle - although he called himself the 'least of the apostles' because he once persecuted the church before being converted to Christianity after encountering the risen Christ on the Road to Damascus.
So, in a sense, anyone who goes out ior is sent out into the streets, the pubs, the workplace, or anywhere in the world and proclaims either by words or deeds the love of Christ can be called an Apostle - one who is 'sent out'.
