MANILA – The Catholic Church has released the official theme and logo for the fifth centenary of Christianity in the Philippines.<\/p>\n

\u201cGifted to Give\u201d is the theme, taken from Matthew 10:8, for the celebration of the 500th anniversary of the arrival of Christianity in the Philippines, also dubbed as \u201c500YOC\u201d.<\/p>\n

The motto and logo were officially approved by the bishops\u2019 permanent council at a regular meeting in Manila on Sept. 18.<\/p>\n

The logo\u2019s central figure was conceptualized with the painting of national artist Fernando Amorsolo titled \u201cThe first baptism in the Philippines\u201d in mind.<\/p>\n

It also displays a cross, a ship, a hovering color of blue, the sun, the \u201cIchthus\u201d, and a holy rosary.<\/p>\n

The cross signifies the Christian salvation while the ship signifies the expedition which brought the faith to the archipelago.<\/p>\n

The hovering color blue, meanwhile, shows various symbolisms. Most notable among them is its depiction of the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove.<\/p>\n

The background is the \u201cPhilippine Sun\u201d, a trademark of Amoroso\u2019s various artwork. \u201cMore considerably, the sun signifies the new life, new beginning, the Risen Christ, the hope of our salvation,\u201d the bishops said.<\/p>\n

Underneath the other elements is the fish which symbolizes Jesus, as the early Christians would use it to indicate or introduce their selves to fellow Christians. It is colored in red to signify that the blood of the martyrs \u201chad been the seed of our Christian faith in imitation of Christ\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis \u201cIchthus\u201d is a sign of looking back of the history as the foundation of our Christian faith,\u201d the added.<\/p>\n

The blue beads also depict the holy rosary \u201cas we Filipinos are deeply devoted to our Blessed Mother\u201d.<\/p>\n

It is notable that the entire color scheme resembles the Philippine flag \u201cfor the Christian faith is never a threat to our Filipino culture nor alienated its richness, because indeed Christian values go beyond and cross over any sort of cultural diversities\u201d.<\/p>\n

In all of these, the images are placed on a \u201csubtle and gentle hand of God the Father\u201d in a bold accented brown lines, \u201cfrom whose uncreated wisdom has planned that all these events will be unfolded according to his will, giving us the whole picture of what we are to celebrate now, the 500 years of our Christianity.\u201d\u00a0– CBCPNews<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider _builder_version=”3.20.1″ _i=”3″ _address=”0.0.0.3″]\n[\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_post_nav prev_text=”PREVIOUS ARTICLE” next_text=”NEXT ARTICLE” _builder_version=”3.20.1″ background_color=”rgba(12,113,195,0.55)” _i=”4″ _address=”0.0.0.4″]\n[\/et_pb_post_nav][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
