O God, who by the preaching of thy blessed servant and bishop Ninian didst cause the light of the Gospel to shine in the land of Britain: Grant, we beseech thee, that, having his life and labors in remembrance, we may show forth our thankfulness by following the example of his zeal and patience; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Today September 16 is Lesser Festival of Ninian, Bishop of Galloway, Apostle of the Picts who died in c.432. This dramatic light is in the cloister @ChesterCath designed by Frederick Charles Eden (1864-1944). @StargazingAleta @carolyn_ra @scowcroft_sr @BSMGP @BeardyHowse pic.twitter.com/qwlVYKkV8j
