Tags: Saint.

Epaphroditus (Greek: Ἐπαφρόδιτος) is a New Testament figure appearing as an envoy of the Philippian church to assist the Apostle Paul (Phil. 2.25-30). He is regarded as a saint of the Orthodox Church and the Catholic Church first Bishop of Philippi and of Andriaca (there are at least two ancient towns called Andriaca one in Thrace and one in Asia Minor) and first Bishop of Terracina Italy. There is little evidence that these were all the same man.
