The significance of the logo for the Office of Latino/Hispanic Ministry

The logo for the Office of Latino/Hispanic Ministry of the Episcopal Church combines elements representing the diversity of Latino/Hispanic Ministry.

  • The rising sun of hope for the future is framed in a mission arch;
  • the condor, whose flight runs along the western coast of North and South America, represents endurance and unity;
  • the mountains and waters represent the reach of ministry from the Far West to the Caribbean.
  • At the center is the triumphant cross of Christ, whose victory over death empowers us all.
