Saint Philip the Deacon<\/strong><\/p>\n

All that is known of Philip is what we are told the Acts of the Apostles<\/em>. He is one of the seven deacons chosen to assist the Apostles by ministering to the needy members of the Church so the Apostles could be free to preach the Gospel. <\/p>\n

He was the first to preach in Samaria, where he converted Simon Magus and then a eunuch who was chief treasurer of the Queen of Ethiopia on the road from Jerusalem to Gaza. <\/p>\n

Philip preached in the coastal cities on the way to his home at Caesarea, and twenty-four years later, Saint Paul stayed at his home in Caesarea, where he still lived with his four unmarried daughters.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
