The Logo of the Diocese
of Kitui, Kenya |
- This logo was developed about 15-20 years ago by the St
Patrick’s Missionaries who were the first to work in East Africa.
The main elements of the logo are the Cross, the hut,
and the tree.
The Cross:
- Representing
Christian values of Justice, Respect, Equality and the Kingdom of God
The Hut:
- Representing
the Place of Community.
- Where
wisdom is passed on
- The
Family
- Africa
is the refuge of the Holy Family (Flight into Egypt)
- Community,
Co-operation, and Simplicity
- African
Traditions and Culture
- Respect
for the elders and the wisdom they pass on
The Tree:
- The
Environment is not separate from Christian and African life, but part
of it
Overall the Logo says:
- Faith,
Life, world, me, us- all connected
- We
are the Christian/African community
- “I
am because we are”
- The
Church in Africa wants to work from the centre of the family outwards
