The missionary work of the church overseas
A collect for the missionary work of the church overseas, from the 1962 Canadian Book of Common Prayer:
Almighty and everlasting God, who desirest not the death of sinners, but rather that they may turn unto thee and live: Deliver the nations of the world from superstition and unbelief, and gather them all into thy holy Church, to the praise and glory of thy Name; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
The Epistle: Romans 10:8-15
The Gospel: St Matthew 28:16-20
This collect, epistle, and gospel are set for use on weekdays during the season of Epiphany.
