SALMONE

(Gk. Salmṓnē)

A promontory pointing toward the north from the eastern end of the island of Crete, modern Cape Sidero. Apparently a wind out of the northwest prevented the ship bearing Paul, en route to Rome, from staying close to the Asian mainland and reaching Cnidus, leading to the decision to sail toward Crete. The ship sailed “under the lee of Crete” (i.e., along the island’s southern coast), having come in past Salmone (Acts 27:7).

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.
