Acts 14:26

Antioch (Syria)
Grace

24 After passing through Pisidia, they came to Pamphylia.

25 And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia.

From Attalia they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work they had just completed.

27 When they arrived, they gathered the church together and reported all that God had done through them, and how He had opened the door of faith to the Gentiles.

28 And they spent a long time there with the disciples.
