Paul wrote this letter to the believers in Philippi, a city in Macedonia. His purpose for writing was to thank the Philippians for the gift they had sent him. He also wanted to tell them about his condition in prison and to encourage them to rejoice even if they are suffering. He also wrote to them about a man named Epaphroditus.
