Our vision and values are incorporated into the design and message of our new look.
Our Vision: We pray that all who enter St. Paul's experience God's
presence in this community of faith, a community that through Christ
strives to be loving, joyous, inclusive, transforming and filled with
God's Grace.
Wherever you are in your spiritual journey, St. Paul's welcomes
you.
Our name, St. Paul's Episcopal Church, is an integral part of the design. The new logo is instantly recognizable as ours.
Our message, "People on a Journey," recognizes that everyone's journey is unique and personal, and that St. Paul's welcomes you wherever you may be on your journey.
The path represents the depth and fluidity of our individual faith journeys. The curved lines further emphasize the warmth and welcoming of St. Paul's. The contemporary look represents our positive energy and vision.
The cross at the center of the path tells people that we are Christ-centered, a community of faith.
The colors of the logo were inspired by the Episcopal Church shield colors of blue, red and white, and the shades were modified so they are easier to read.
"Loving, joyous, inclusive" are words that say what we strive for and tell people what they can expect when they visit St. Paul's. They will be used on our letterhead, and whenever space allows.
Our new image is instantly recognizable at a glance. We feel it captures the essence of St. Paul's. You will see it on everything St. Paul's puts out, from letterhead, to new brochures and mailings, to the Epistle, and our website.
