Acts 10:1-3

1In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment.

2He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He gave generously to the poor and prayed regularly to God.

3One afternoon about three o’clock, he had a vision in which he saw an angel of God coming toward him. “Cornelius!” the angel said.
