Design a fresh logo with a fresh focus for Friends Church

Friends Church

Wabash, IN

We are a church of 500 people. We have a new mission statement and values and want to rebrand to show our focus on relational community, service, social justice, global evangelism, and faith building. We want to appeal to young families but where Dad and singles feels at home in our worship meeting as much and mom and the kids.

I'm going to attach the document that has our mission and values so you can see them. The last three values represent an ever widening circle of outreach and care. Starting with the relationships you already have, extending to the community we live in as a whole, and going even further into global evangelism. In my head Ii love the idea of pairing a cross with three concentric circles that represents those circles of influence. I have this thought of a modernized version of a celtic cross so the circles incorporate seamlessly into the cross. I'm not married to the idea though. I like the idea of color, where the cross could have multiple colors (especially to differentiate the three circles). Maybe even a look to the cross/circles that was a modern play on the stained glass look. I'm an avid soccer fan, so I have some interest in it looking like the more simplified soccer badges/crests that you see in that it could have the logo curve at the top and the "Wabash, IN" curve at the bottom to make the design circular. Something more linear would be good too though. I'm also open to design choices that have nothing to do with anything I've said here. I don't know if that's a helpful statement or not. Thank you. I'll also include a couple other things I like.
