The mosaic icon designed by Chris Gosey and assembled with the help of parishioners contains much Christian symbolism, in the colors and shapes as well as the materials used to construct it.
In general, the colors take on the following meanings: blue for the heavenly realm, the place where God lives; green for the growth given us through the Holy Spirit; gold for the light of Christ that shines over the world and imbues it with spiritual knowledge; white for the purity given us as a gift during baptism; and red for Christ’s redeeming blood and for the fire of the Holy Spirit that burns away sin and gives new life in Him.
