The Meanings Behind the Banners

+++The first banner --- the bread and chalice ---remind us that we are a people who gather around the
sacrament of Holy Communion --- as we are regularlynourished by the body and blood of Christ.

+++The second banner --- the hallelujah angel ---reminds us of God’s messengers who hailed both Jesus’ birthand later his resurrection --- and that we too are called to herald the good news of Jesus Christ.

+++The third banner --- the Luther Rose --- reminds us that we are a beacon proclaiming the gospel message from aLutheran perspective to the people of Sevier County as well asthe many visitors who come to this place on a yearly basis.

+++The fourth banner --- the Easter cross and flowers--- reminds us that Christ willingly died for the sake of our sins, and that his through his resurrection, Jesus offers to us the gifts of new life and eternal life.

+++The fifth banner --- the dove --- reminds us that the Holy Spirit, which came upon Jesus at the time of his baptism and the disciples on the Day of Pentecost, also dwells in each one of us. I also want to note that this banner was a collaborate effort between Lois and her daughter, Jill Cox.
