Colossae

In the Bible

Paul and Timothy wrote to the saints in Colossae; Epaphras, one of them, sends greetings and is always wrestling in prayer for them.

Col 1:1–2Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, To the saints and faithful brothers in Christ at Colossae: Grace and peace to you from God our Father.
Col 4:12Epaphras, who is one of you and a servant of Christ Jesus, sends you greetings. He is always wrestling in prayer for you, so that you may stand mature and fully assured in the full will of God.
