Meet Phoebe.
A trusted woman serving the church.
Who was Phoebe?
Phoebe was a trusted member of the church at Cenchreae. Paul commended her to the Romans and asked them to help her. Translations describe her role using words such as servant or deacon.
Paul said Phoebe had helped many people, including him. His greeting recognises her contribution and asks the receiving community to support her in turn.
