The Franciscan Shore Logo

The Franciscan Shore logo features a Franciscan Tau cross that sweeps upward to form an open heart. The waves signify our proximity to Lake Michigan and the Franciscan belief in care for all creation. The logo also represents the Trinity: God the Father (the open heart); God the Son (the cross); and the Spirit (water).
