Clean, simple, warm, inviting, recognizable symoblism, meaningful. The colors requested lend themselves beautifully to the flame symbol (Holy Spirit). This icon takes the that flame image even deeper. There are two flames, representing various people, not always going the exact same way (perfect), but both filled with the flame and reaching upwards. The base of the flame is what's holding it up, and even moreso, holding it together. These are the hands that hold the church (the people) together. The browns lighten to represent varied skin tones, varied people. The title font is classic but contemporary, timeless and very easy to read even in small sizes. This icon is meant to be a strong image, easily discernable on signs from a distance. Moreso, it represents the budding flame of the church and all of the elements therein.
