He was one of the Seven chosen to care for the poor of the Christian community in Jerusalem ({{Bibleverse||Acts|6|KJV}}). He preached and reportedly performed miracles in Samaria, and met and baptised an Ethiopian man, a eunuch, in Gaza, traditionally marking the start of the Ethiopian Church ({{Bibleverse||Acts|8|KJV}}). Later, Philip lived in Caesarea Maritima with his four daughters who foretold, where he was visited by Paul the Apostle ({{Bibleverse||Acts|21|KJV}}). New TestamentPhilip bore a Greek name. He is first mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles ({{Bibleverse-nb||Acts|6:5|KJV}}) as one of "Seven Deacons" who were chosen to attend to certain temporal affairs of the church in Jerusalem in consequence of the murmurings of the Hellenists against the Hebrews. After the martyrdom of Saint Stephen he went to "the city of Samaria", where he preached with much success, Simon Magus being one of his converts. He afterwards was told by an angel of the Lord to go to the road between Jerusalem and Gaza. There he instructed and baptized the Ethiopian eunuch; next he was "caught away" by the Spirit and "found at Azotus" (Ashdod), and then "pass[ed] through he preached in all the cities till he came to Caesarea" (Acts 8). Here some years afterwards, according to {{Bibleverse||Acts|21:8–9|KJV}}, where he is described as "the evangelist" (a term found again in the New Testament only in Ephesians {{Bibleverse-nb||Ephesians|4:11|KJV}}; 2 Timothy {{Bibleverse-nb|2|Timothy|4:5|KJV}}), he entertained Paul the Apostle and his companion on their way to Jerusalem; at that time "he had four daughters which did Prophecy".[1] TraditionAt a very early period he came to be confused with the Philip the Apostle; the confusion was all the more easy because, as an esteemed member of the apostolic company, he may readily have been described as an apostle in the wider sense of that word, beyond the original 12 Apostles.[2] A late tradition describes him as settling at Tralles in Anatolia, where he became the bishop of that church.[1] "St Philip the Deacon" is commemorated on October 11 in the Eastern Orthodox Church, in the Roman Rite,[3] the Lutheran Church–Missouri Synod,[4] and the Episcopal Church (USA).[5] Additionally, in the Eastern Orthodox Church, Philip is counted among the Seventy Apostles, and is referred to as a Protodeacon; this feast day is celebrated on January 4. St. Philip's feast day is celebrated in The Episcopal Church but not in other Anglican churches. He was added to the Calendar of Saints because he is the patron saint for the Cathedral of St. Philip in the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta. {{Portal|Saints}}Notes1. ^1 {{EB1911|inline=1 |wstitle=Philip "the Evangelist" |volume=21 |page=376}} 2. ^see further George Salmon, Introduction to the New Testament, 7th ed., p. 313 sqq. 3. ^"Martyrologium Romanum", Typis Vaticanis, Editio Altera, 2004, entry for 11 October 4. ^Lutheranism 101, Scot A.
