      And when he had found him, he brought him to Antioch.  So it was that for a whole year they assembled with the church and taught a great many people.  And the disciples were first called Christians in Antioch. 
                                Acts 11:26

     The first Christian church was founded in Antioch, also.  It is located in the southern part of Turkey, about 12 miles northwest of the Syrian borders.  Modern-day Antioch is Antakya, Turkey and is near the Mediterranean Sea - this is where Paul started his missions.
     I am sure you read that this is where the disciples were first called Christians.   What a special place!  Tell God that you love Him.

The LORD bless you and keep you;
The LORD make His face shine upon you,
And be gracious to you;
The LORD lift up His countenance upon you,
And give you peace.

     Love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength.  Please read your Bible.
