Summary
Philippians 4:13

4:13. I can do all things in Him who strengthens me.

English: Local historical information painted on a brick wall at the corner of Main Street and Center Street in the town of Flora, Indiana. It reads: Flora was founded by John and Sarah Flora who came here in 1827 with their infant son, Abraham. First called Fountain City, and later Ino, it was officially named Flora on August 25, 1873. The Floras had eight children including twins John Jr. and David. Josiah Flora, grandson of John and Sarah, lived with his grandparents and proudly carried the surveyor's chain as Flora's boundaries were being laid. The Miami Indians inhabited this region at the time of the settler's arrival. This hunting and farming tribe also excelled in fine ribbon applique decoration. The Indians were friends with the white settlers who were greatly saddened when the government removed all Indians to the Kansas territory in the 1830s-1840s. Flora's boundaries lie within a strong agricultural and swine producing area. Among its citizens are those who retain the old ways. The sight of a horse and buggy on the roadways is as common today as it was in the days of the first settlers. Flora's foundation and strength for the future has, and will be reflected in Philippians 4:13: "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me."
