Symbols of the Christian jouney - Chrismons

The tree itself, green throughout the year, is a symbol of eternal life. The lights speak to us of the Light of the World, the Christ who came at Christmas.


Our first Chrismon is the Orb – a symbol of the earth. It also represents all of us who are earth-dwellers. Circled in gold, the Orb promises a glorious day for tired, old earth and its burdened people – the day when God shall come and dwell among us, and humankind shall live as God intends.
