OUR LOGO
A Fish, Cross and Triangle.
Our logo represents Christian community, Jesus our Lord, and the Trinity. The simple Fish symbol was used by early Christians to recognize one another. In the Greek language, the word for fish is ΙΧΘΥΣ (ichthys). From these letters, “ichthys,” early Christians made an acrostic: Iesous Christos Theou Yios Soter, which means Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior. The Cross, an early device for executing criminals, symbolizes Jesus sacrificing His life for ours. The Triangle represents the Trinity, which is how the Bible presents God – three persons in one Godhead.
