1 From the Elder.To my dear friend Gaius, whom I love in the truth:
2 My dear friend, I know your soul is doing fine, and I pray that you are doing well in every way and that your health is good.
3 I was very happy when some brothers and sisters came and told me about the truth in your life and how you are following the way of truth.
4 Nothing gives me greater joy than to hear that my children are following the way of truth.
5 My dear friend, it is good that you help the brothers and sisters, even those you do not know.
6 They told the church about your love. Please help them to continue their trip in a way worthy of God.
