The GB Logo
Each symbol of The Girls' Brigade adds to its total meaning of LOVE -
The LAMP is likened to our lives - empty, it is useless; filled but left until it simply an ornament. It must be set alight. We have the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives, but as with the oil, the spark of God's love is needed to set us alight.
The FLAME OF LOVE will then shine out from the Lamp - God's love shines through us to others.
The CROSS is at the centre. The Lamp is at the foot of the Cross where we begin to live as Christians. Looking up at the Cross we are reminded that God's love for us is so great that He gave His Son to die for us.
The RED BACKGROUND helps us to remember that Jesus' blood was shed that we might be cleansed from our sins.
The CIRCLE signifies God's encircling love. To remain in that Circle we must forgive and accept others. To keep that Circle complete we each have a place in it, being loyal to God, to His Church, and to one another.
The TORCH OF ENDEAVOUR at the top of the badge becomes a reality if Flames of Love burn brightly in the lives of all Brigaders.
The CROWN which supports the Torch reminds us whom we serve - no one less than the King of Kings who promises a Crown of Life to those who are faithful to Him
Vesper
Captain Divine
Our work is now complete
And ere we part
We gather at Thy Feet
To give our labours and ourselves to Thee
Without reserve Thy cause to serve
O Captain hear us as we pledge to be
True to our creed in thoughts and deeds
Amen
