Paul, a prisoner for Christ Jesus, and Timothy our brother, To Phile’mon our beloved fellow worker and Ap’phia our sister and Archip’pus our fellow soldier, and the church in your house: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. I thank my God always when I remember you in my prayers, because I hear of your love and of the faith which you have toward the Lord Jesus and all the saints, and I pray that the sharing of your faith may promote the knowledge of all the good that is ours in Christ.
–Philemon 1:1-6
