Agapo
Discrete figure among the seventy-two disciples, he shows talents as a prophet:
"I said: 'Jesus certainly loves me. I am calling His love to assist me' and Your love came to me. Like a fire, a light… a strength… The man before me was watching me sneering ironically and winking at his friends. He was sure to win the argument. I opened my mouth and it was like a river of words which flowed out joyfully from my silly mouth."[1]He remains among the faithful after the discourse on the Bread of Life which causes a schism in the apostolic group.[2]

Perhaps this is Agabus who appears twice in the Acts of the Apostles: in[3] where he predicts, in Antioch, a famine that occurred under the reign of Emperor Claudius, and in Acts 21:10 where he predicts the imprisonment of Saul (Paul).
In support of this hypothesis, one can note the proximity of the name and especially his discourse to Jesus in GRM 280, where he refers to his invocations to the Spirit which are typically found in the passages of the Acts of the Apostles.
He is celebrated on April 8 (others suggest February 13) and is considered patron of the prophets.
