PATARA

(Gk. Pátara)

The major port of Lycia situated on the southwest coast opposite Rhodes, 9.6 km. (6 mi.) E of the mouth of the Xanthus River. A prosperous city, Patara was one of the six largest cities of the Lycian league (Strabo Geog. 14.3.2-3). Here Paul changed ships to sail to Phoenicia during his final journey to Jerusalem (Acts 21:1; some texts read “Patara and Myra”).

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
