The combination of the cross and lily image with the words "Women of the ELCA" or "Women of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America" gives a full picture of who we are. Therefore it is important to use the elements together. Our three color logo consists of black, white and blue (PMS 308). No other color may be substituted. If reproducing the logo in grayscale, or black and white, please use the black and white versions below. Whenever possible please keep the lily and waves in the cross white.

Logo guidelines and use

Our logo identifies us as the women's ministry organization of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America. Therefore it can only be used in ways that enhance and carry out our mission and purpose. Women of the ELCA grants permission, at no charge, to recognized expressions of the organization to reproduce the logo for communication-related purposes. These include uses that promote, inform, report on, and otherwise support the mission, purpose, work, ministries, and programs of Women of the ELCA. Recognized expressions of the organization can be, synodical women's organizations, congregational, intercongregational, or special units; and clusters or conferences. The Women of the ELCA logo is a federally registered trademark, so it may not be adapted in any way.

Any use of the logo that involves the sale of goods or fundraising requires additional, formal permission from the churchwide organization in order to (1) determine whether the criteria outlined below are being met and (2) to approve the graphic representation and use of the logo.

The churchwide organization may grant permission to recognized expressions of the organization to reproduce the logo for fundraising purposes if (1) the fundraising or sale of goods will support that expression's own mission and ministries, or (2) the fundraising or sale of goods will support the mission and ministries of the churchwide organization (for example, to raise money for Katie's Fund, grants, scholarships, or the health initiative).

Permission is never granted to individuals who wish to reproduce the logo on items that will be sold for personal profit.

All uses of the logo--whether for communication or fundraising purposes--must conform to the graphic standards listed above.

What does our logo mean?

Our logo—with the cross, water and a white lily—identifies women of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America as children of God; baptized, forgiven, adopted into God's family, full of grace and hope in eternal life. It is a reminder of the growth, beauty, and vitality that rises out of that life-giving baptismal water. It is also a reminder of the mission of the church to "Go, therefore, make disciples of all nations; baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19).

OUR MISSION & PURPOSE

As a community of women created in the image of God, called to discipleship in Jesus Christ, and empowered by the Holy Spirit, we commit ourselves to grow in  faith, affirm our gifts, support one another in our callings, engage in ministry and action, and promote healing and wholeness in the church, the society, and the world.
