SECUNDUS

(Gk. Sekoúndos)

A Christian who, along with Aristarchus, represented the city of Thessalonica on Paul’s last trip to Jerusalem (Acts 20:4). The two probably were responsible for administering in Thessalonica the collection for the church in Jerusalem (cf. 2 Cor. 8:3), and may have accompanied Paul on the trip both for accountability and protection. The name (from Lat. Secundus, “following” or “second”) is common in the Greek papyri and is found among the list of politarchs on the triumphal arch in Thessalonica.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
