Altogether, this logo is meant to be a picture of the Incarnation: God made tangible in a particular time and place, among a particular people with particular stories. It's a creative imagining of the Message paraphrase of John 1:14: "The Word became flesh and moved into the neighborhood." 

Church of the Good Shepherd, Lynchburg, VA is a place where many weary, hurting people have come to find rest and hear the voice of the Good Shepherd. We often hear that the grieving, the wounded, and the weary receive comfort and healing by coming to Sunday worship and partaking in the liturgy. 

Many of the churches in the Diocese have very intentional logos used as a part of their church’s story and mission. All Saints’ Church in Woodbridge, VA shares about their logo below.

The Jerusalem Cross: All Saints’ Church

All Souls wanted their logo to be beautiful, ancient, and explicitly Christian. They wanted it to convey, first, that they are a church (important!), a connection to the past, that they value beauty as an essential characteristic of God. Further, it was important that the logo express that their community, while sincere, does not take itself overly-seriously, and is a place to come unvarnished and unafraid.

Church of the Good Shepherd is an Anglican church plant in Charlottesville, Virginia. We are a community seeking to grow into Christ’s likeness for the glory of God, for the abundance of our own lives, and for the good of our neighbors.

Our logo was created amid the pandemic, which speaks to the hope we share in Christ during difficult times, and our resolve to fulfill the call God has placed on our church.

The Truro Logo: Truro seeks to be Jesus-centered, evangelistic in bringing others to Christ, graciously engaging others in love and truth, and centered on being a hospitable community where the love of God is evident to all." -Truro Parish Profile

Our church plant Christ the Redeemer (Dillsburg, PA) has drawn inspiration from the "Celtic" cross. (We love the book "Celtic Way of Evangelism.")

The chalice and paten feature prominently in our logo because the Sacraments are a primary means of grace and the hope of glory.

The cross and typestyle for the logo of Anglican Church of the Valley were created for us about 2009 by an artist member of the church.
