Posted by petrus, on September 21st, 2019

Nicolas Poussin Autumn or The Spies with the Grapes of the Promised Land

Autumn, or The Spies with the Grapes of the Promised Land, by Nicolas Poussin (1594–1665). From Wikipedia.

O God of all the nations of the earth: Remember the multitudes who have been created in thine image but have not known the redeeming work of our Saviour Jesus Christ; and grant that, by the prayers and labors of thy holy Church, they may be brought to know and worship thee as thou hast been revealed in thy Son; who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Ghost, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.

Given in the 1979 BCP as the second of two collects “For the Mission of the Church”.
