Knowing as I do that ye are full of all good, I have but
briefly exhorted you in the love of Jesus Christ. Be
mindful of me in your prayers, that I may attain to God ;
and of the Church which is in Syria, of whom I am not
worthy to be called bishop. For I stand in need of your
united prayer in God, and of your love, that the Church
which is in Syria may be deemed worthy, by your good
order, of being edified ' in Christ.
