That night Paul had a vision in which he saw a Macedonian standing and begging him, "Come over to Macedonia and help us!"

As soon as Paul had this vision, we got ready to leave for Macedonia, because we decided that God had called us to preach the Good News to the people there.

When Silas and Timothy arrived from Macedonia, Paul gave his whole time to preaching the message, testifying to the Jews that Jesus is the Messiah.

After the uproar died down, Paul called together the believers and with words of encouragement said good-bye to them. Then he left and went on to Macedonia.

For I planned to visit you on my way to Macedonia and again on my way back, in order to get help from you for my trip to Judea.

But I was deeply worried, because I could not find our brother Titus. So I said good-bye to the people there and went on to Macedonia.

Our friends, we want you to know what God's grace has accomplished in the churches in Macedonia.

And during the time I was with you I did not bother you for help when I needed money; the believers who came from Macedonia brought me everything I needed. As in the past, so in the future: I will never be a burden to you!

For not only did the message about the Lord go out from you throughout Macedonia and Achaia, but the news about your faith in God has gone everywhere. There is nothing, then, that we need to say.

When they arrived at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues. They had John Mark with them to help in the work.

Paul wanted to take Timothy along with him, so he circumcised him. He did so because all the Jews who lived in those places knew that Timothy's father was Greek.

My host Gaius, in whose house the church meets, sends you his greetings; Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus send you their greetings.

Erastus stayed in Corinth, and I left Trophimus in Miletus, because he was sick.
