Official logo for Pope Francis' visit to Egypt
(Vatican Radio) The logo for Pope Francis’ Apostolic
Journey to Egypt, which takes place 28-29 April, has been released by the
Egyptian Catholic Church.
The three main elements present in the logo are Egypt, Pope
Francis, and Peace.
“Pope of Peace in Egypt of Peace” are the words in Arabic
and English at the base of the logo.
Egypt is represented by the Nile River – a symbol of life –
as well as by the pyramids and the Sphinx, which highlight the long history of
civilization in this African country.
The Cross and Crescent Moon at the center of the logo
represent the coexistence between the various components of the Egyptian
people.
A white dove signifies peace, which is both the highest gift
to which every human being can aspire and the greeting of monotheistic
religions.
Finally, the dove precedes Pope Francis to announce his
arrival as the Pope of Peace in a country of peace.
