As Paul was on his way to Rome for his trial, the ship he was travelling on faced some very bad storms. It eventually was shipwrecked on the small island of Melita. The people were very kind to those poor, shipwrecked folks. They built a fire for them and took them into their houses for lodging even though they spoke a different language.
This is something we can each learn from. God wants us to be hospitable to others: even those that we don't know. Hospitality is a mark of a true Christian. This can also give us an opportunity to witness as well.
1 Peter 4:9
"Use hospitality one to another without grudging."
KJV
