Sun Lakes Lutheran Church adopts new logo


Deaconess Carol Bowers Sun Lakes Lutheran Church is growing


and has adopted a new logo. The blue represents the water of life fl owing up into the cross that promises eternal life, and the golden sun represents the light that shines in each of us through the rebirth in Christ Jesus. Water is a signifi cant symbol


for Christians,


just as the sun and the cross have signifi cant meaning. We are born again through water and the word in our baptism into God’s family. So how fi tting it is that we should be living in Sun Lakes and enjoying the gifts God has given us. After Christmas we


began the celebration of the 12 days of Christmas that led us to Epiphany, the celebration of the revelation of God in the Christ child. What a surprise that God should come to us in such a humble way! As the New Year begins, there has been such news in the world that has astonished even the wisest of people. Yet in the chaos and confusion God is present and does give us hope by giving us the long promised Prince of Peace.
