LOGO
Our logo is the most visible element of our identity—a universal signature across all Saint Barnabas communications. It’s a symbol of commonality that unites our diverse ministries. We use the same logo in print, on screen, and on the side of our buildings.
The logo is made up of two elements: the symbol and the logotype. Where possible, our slogan Boundless Presence may appear alongside our logo. The logo and/or slogan should not be altered from their original form in the files below. This includes distortions to proportions or typefaces. Please hold the shift key while resizing the logo in order to avoid distortion.
The horizontal orientation of our logo is recommended for instances of limited space where the logotype cannot sit under the symbol.

Designer’s notes: for flexibility in print and digital media, a white color logo may also be used with one of the other official Saint Barnabas colors as a background or with a photo as a background. Furthermore, the logo can appear in any of the official Saint Barnabas colors with a white background.
Clear space
To ensure the integrity and legibility of the logo lock-ups, the area directly surrounding them should be protected. Clear space minimums are built into the logo files.
COLORS
When possible, please use white or one of the official Saint Barnabas colors as the background color for the Saint Barnabas logo.
