HISTORY

Vision

God is weaving the Synod of the Southwest into a tapestry of cultures, peoples and dreams – an “Ojo de Dios” that envisions a future of wholeness, grace and beauty.

Ojo: The center represents the pupil of the eye of the Spirit. The four points represent earth, fire, air and water. The ojo symbolizes a wish for health, fortune and long life.
