CHURCH OF THE HILLS
This church is known for Sunday morning
services with an open heart to Him, but an
”out-of-the-box”, new wine skin
approach. So it didn’t alarm me when the
pastor asked if I would do something unlike any
logo he had seen. Being that there are
vineyards in the area and the church offers
true “wine”, I made the logo like a
wine label. For the image, I found a view
overlooking a creek west of the church. This
site has been set aside to recognize the
last Indian massacre in the county. How fitting
of an image to convey His desire to pour out
grace abounding through His church.

SEASIDE SAFARI AT
MOODY GARDENS
- Galveston,
Texas
Seaside Safari, part of Hope Therapy, is
one of several philanthropic projects of
the Moody Foundation established for
individuals confined to wheelchairs,
children, the elderly, emotionally
disturbed, or mentally retarded. Touching
and relating to the animals provides
pleasure and immense psychological benefit
to everyone who enters.
I chose to
illustrate a cockatiel to fit with
tropical, lush rainforests and beach life.
The type is also hand rendered for effect.
Something one doesn’t see much these
days.

PREPARING THE WAY
MINISTRIES
As is my custom when creating a logo, I
most often send 3-5 ideas. I rendered this
simply in Illustrator, so it could work on
the web or a CD series jacket back. It was
my personal favorite of the lot.

TEMPLO
KOINONIA
A Spanish church founded on the principles
of fellowship found in the book of Acts.
Acts 2:42 “They were continually
devoting themselves to the apostles’
teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking
of bread and to
prayer.”
I wanted a
powerful, simple universal symbol for the
communion of the saints, one that could
work in any language. This one
doesn’t take any words to
talk.

IDEAS
This logo was developed for a missionary to
Albania. At the time he was traveling
there, he needed a
“tent-making” company as a
front to legitimize his frequent trips into
the then closed country. I wish I could
remember exactly what the acronym stood
for. It was crafted from an old engraving
and Goudy hand-tooled type.
