Paul Gives Thanks for the Christians in Colossae

1 This letter is from Paul, a missionary for Jesus Christ. God wanted me to work for Him. This letter is from brother Timothy also. ² I am writing to you who belong to Christ in the city of Colossae. May all the Christian brothers there have loving-favor and peace from God our Father.

³ We always pray and give thanks to God for you. He is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
