Philip.

PHILIP (the evangelist) was also one of the seven deacons of the church at Jerusalem prior to the dispersion. Chap. 6 : 5. He then made his way to Samaria, where he preached the gospel with great power. Chap. 8 : 5, 12. The manner in which he was led by the Spirit would indicate that he was an active and efficient worker. He was afterward sent out upon the desert southward toward Gaza, where he met and baptized the Ethiopian eunuch; and the record traces him to Azotus, and on to Cesarea where he appears to have made his home, and “had four daughters, virgins, which did prophesy.” Chap. 21 : 8, 9.
