When the 300th Anniversary banner at the church came down at the end of 2014 the front of the church looked bare. The Worship and Music Committee started the search for something to replace the anniversary banner. We now have a complete set of liturgical banners for all the church seasons.
The green banners were the first banners that were purchased. The committee was happily surprised to find they had hit the jackpot with banners that coordinated so well with the Rose Window. Green banners are used in the Sundays following Pentecost and Epiphany. Green is used to indicate our growth in Christ.
The white banners are used on festival Sundays. The color white signifies the purity of Christ, light or joy. These banners were given through Ray Kunkel’s Memorial Fund and by the Wintemute family.
The red banners are used on Pentecost and Reformation Sunday. Red is the color of fire and energy. Our red banners were given by Elaine and Ted Jermansen and Marguerite Durham.
The blue banners, suggesting hope, are used during Advent. These banners were given by Betty Lanka.
The purple banners, suggesting repentance and solemnity are used during Lent. These banners were given by Dan Matyola and Joann and Michael Donnelly.
