WE ARE OFTEN ASKED WHAT OUR LOGO SYMBOLIZES

Each of the colours in our logo were chosen purposefully, embracing the positive meaning and emotions that each colour typically evokes. But there is a deeper meaning—the four colours of the logo represent God’s salvation story as told in the Bible.

  • yellow

    YELLOW represents New Life. God so loves His creation, that he does everything necessary to fix what our rebellion has broken. God enters the world in Jesus to restore to humankind the more and better life God intended for us all in the beginning.

  • purple

    PURPLE represents God’s eternal kingdom of love and peace. When Jesus comes again, he will make all things new, healing all the world’s brokenness, returning it to its original created beauty, and bringing God’s kingdom dream to fulfilment. All those who have trusted in Jesus and sought to live in his way in the world will live eternally in God’s presence.

  • green

    GREEN represents God’s good creation and His dream for all creation to live together in peace, thriving and flourishing together in harmony.

  • red

    RED represents the Fall. We humans refuse to live under God’s loving rule, corrupting God’s world and despoiling its goodness. And so we were thrust out from the paradise God created for us.

THE OPEN DOOR is a faith community that seeks to help everyone discover this new life in Jesus, represented by the figure in the doorway of the yellow block. We welcome those outside to come in, receive hospitality, and become part of the family. At the same time, we equip and empower those inside to go out into the world to share Jesus’ love and introduce them to him.
