A christian woman commended by the apostle to the saints at Rome as “a servant of the church.” He desired that they should assist her in anything in which she needed their aid. She had been a succorer of many and of Paul. The word for “servant” is διἀκονος, “deaconess,” but may not imply any official service (Rom. 16:1¹I commend unto you Phebe our sister, which is a servant of the church which is at Cenchrea: (Romans 16:1)).
