Philip, the deacon/evangelist.

I have found the actions and life of one of the first deacon, Philip who became a evangelist later and his 4 daughters who prophesied very interesting.  Philip witness in the part in the conversion of the Ethiopian treasure, his preaching the Gospel at Azotus  on his way to Caesarea . 

Philip and his daughters are said to have been buried in Hierapolis according to Eusebius.  Eusebius had some confusion between the Apostle Philip and the Evangelist Philip.  According to the Dialogue of Caius, speaks thus concerning the death of Philip and his daughters:  After him there were 4 prophetesses, the daughters of Philip at Hierapolis in Asia, their tomb is there and the tomb of their father.

I found that this individual and his 4 daughters that Jesus was able to use mightily to bring the Gospel to many individuals.  He was a blessing for many, many years.

May we all be like Philip and his 4 prophesying daughters.

Stephen

(Acts 21:8-9 KJV)  And the next day we that were of Paul's company departed, and came unto Caesarea: and we entered into the house of Philip the evangelist, which was one of the seven; and abode with him. {9} And the same man had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.

(Acts 6:5-6 KJV)  And the saying pleased the whole multitude: and they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Ghost, and Philip, and Prochorus, and Nicanor, and Timon, and Parmenas, and Nicolas a proselyte of Antioch: {6} Whom they set before the apostles: and when they had prayed, they laid their hands on them.

(Acts 8:26 NIV)  Now an angel of the Lord said to Philip, "Go south to the road--the desert road--that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza."

(Acts 8:27 NIV)  So he started out, and on his way he met an Ethiopian eunuch, an important official in charge of all the treasury of Candace, queen of the Ethiopians. This man had gone to Jerusalem to worship,

(Acts 8:34-35 NIV)  The eunuch asked Philip, "Tell me, please, who is the prophet talking about, himself or someone else?" {35} Then Philip began with that very passage of Scripture and told him the good news about Jesus.

(Acts 8:5 KJV)  Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.

(Acts 8:39-40 NIV)  When they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord suddenly took Philip away, and the eunuch did not see him again, but went on his way rejoicing. {40} Philip, however, appeared at Azotus and traveled about, preaching the gospel in all the towns until he reached Caesarea.
