3. The bold cross, an established Christian sign, also represents the strong mast of a sailing ship.
4.The Ship itself is a nod to the sailors who first brought the Christian faith to the Philippines.
5. The flash of blue is a reflection of several different aspects, including the Holy Spirit represented in a form of a dove.
6. The central graphic shows two figures, and is based on the painting of Fernando Amorsolo, entitled “First Baptism in the Philippines”.
7. The yellow background is taken from the Philippine flag, and similarly is a representation of the sun.
