Subject/Title of Window: Torch and Harvest

Brief Description of Subject: On the left is a torch which symbolizes missions and the chain emblematic of ignorance. The torch was introduced as the act of ministering to those in darkness. On the right shows the scythe and the wheat representing harvest, a time of reaping or gathering of crops. In the church the harvest symbolizes evangelism.

The MSGC is a constantly evolving database. Not all the data that has been collected by volunteers has been sorted and entered. Not every building has been completely documented.

All images in the Index are either born-digital photographs of windows or buildings or are scans of slides, prints, or other published sources. These images have been provided by volunteers and the quality of the material varies widely.

If you have any questions, additions or corrections, or think you can provide better images and are willing to share them, please contact donald20@msu.edu
