Knowing as I do that ye are full of
God, I have but briefly exhorted you.
Be mindful of me in your prayers,
that I may attain to God ; and of the
Church which is in Syria, whence I
am not worthy to derive my name :
for I stand in need of your united
prayer in God, and your love, that
the Church which is in Syria may be
deemed worthy of being refreshed ^
by your Church.
