advent images

[Phil Porter]

Hi All,

Here are a few possible Advent logos. I stayed "broad" since I'm assuming that we will want to be able to interpret the idea of "arrival" from several different points of view. So I didn't go for images of Mary & Joseph specifically or do something suggesting immigration.

Open to your thoughts...

Phil

Lovely.  I find the cosmic third image the strongest, but also the most like a sci fi movie poster, whether or not we want that:)

#2 is sweet, brings the warm Christmassy feelings and a sense of arrival as homecoming. 

I like the visual of #1 but doesn't say "arrival" as clearly to me.

Kit nailed my sentiments exactly. 

I actually like the idea of going with a traditional Holy Family on a donkey. It echoes the caravan, which is front and center in our minds. And I think the name of the theme itself gives us a lot of latitude, no matter what the image is.

If you write me on a Monday, know that it's my sabbath! The day I turn out the "lights," to better see the stars.

So beautiful and I agree with Kit’s summary.  I also kinda like the Holy Family with a donkey idea too (cuz of the caravan).

Thanks,  Phil!!
