1. From Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus.To all God's people who belong to Christ Jesus at Philippi and to all your church officials and officers.
2. I pray that God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ will be kind to you and will bless you with peace!
3. Every time I think of you, I thank my God.
4. And whenever I mention you in my prayers, it makes me happy.
5. This is because you have taken part with me in spreading the good news from the first day you heard about it.
6. God is the one who began this good work in you, and I am certain that he won't stop before it is complete on the day that Christ Jesus returns.
