2015 Convention Logo Explanation
The brown line represents mankind as a newly plowed field open to receive God’s bountiful blessings. As God nourishes His people with His Word and Sacraments, the Holy Spirit nurtures faith in Christ Jesus who, by His death on the cross, gives salvation and forgiveness to all believers and empowers them to serve as His light (depicted by the sun) to the world. The two green lines represent the abundant fruits produced through His grace by God’s people. The three lines together depict an open Bible. In response to His grace, mercy, and bountiful blessings we thank, praise, and share our Father’s love.
