Echo Community Church
Freelance Project
Objective:
Create a new logo for new church starting in the White Marsh, Maryland area.
Echo Community Church (ECC) was a new church location being started in the Perry Hall/White Marsh area, aiming to serve the local communities as a “satellite campus” of sorts, still under the main leadership and guidance of Trinity Church in Lutherville, Maryland. The target demographic for the church was young adults & families with children. ECC was intended to be an “outreach heavy” church that focused on ministering & reaching out to the community through efforts to meet the needs of others around them, both on an individual level & as a united church body.
The choice of the word “Echo” had many meanings. They included, but were not limited to, the following:
• A church body desiring to echo the words & life of Jesus to the community.
• A church body desiring to echo God’s word in their own words & lifestyle.
The church specifically wanted to avoid cliché imagery associated with churches such as a globe, icthus (fish), cross, Bible, dove or fire. The client wanted the logo to embrace their mission and appeal to the desired demographic while remaining contemporary and as timeless as possible.
