Year of Grace logo

The logo explained

There is no one symbol or message that the Year of Grace logo is intended to convey.

It is a bright and stylish image which, in looking at it, has many significant symbols and connections that can be drawn:

• The cross
• The sun
• A circle that represents the infinity of God
• The halo incorporating a cross that surrounds the head of Jesus in Eastern iconography
• The host used at Mass
• The monstrance used in Eucharistic adoration
• A link with the artistic tradition of our Indigenous people
• The earthen, ochre colours of Australia
• A diversity of peoples and cultures, gathered into one community
• A star-burst
• Light

There may be other ways in which the logo speaks to people.
