Sanctuary United Methodist Church

Desired Style: Classy, but not "old" - be creative Accepted File Formats: VECTOR! .eps for sure, .psd and .ai if using AI Unflattened. We are looking for a logo for Sanctuary United Methodist Church: http://www.maranachurch.org. The logo needs to be unique and it should use the the traditional United Methodist Logo. Here is an example of creating a logo using the United Methodist Logo as a part of it: http://web.mac.com/clergymom/iWeb/Site/Welcome.html To get a copy of the United Methodist Logo, http://archives.umc.org/interior.asp?mid=1563 we are fully authorized to use it. Target audience: Ages 35 - 80. So you probably don't want to get too crazy. I am open to simple stylized logo & name like they did: http://www.cor.org. They simply used the logo and their name stylized. We are okay with this as well. Here is what would can be used for our name: Sanctuary A United Methodist Church Sanctuary United Methodist Church Or simple variations along this same line. Daybreaks (the first link above) really speaks to me, but obviously they played on their name. KEEP AWAY from placing a small icon or a picture of a church for the logo - it will be rejected immediately. Please be creative and have fun with this. The logo will eventually be used for: all print advertisement, letterhead, envelopes, t-shirts, sign in front of the church, logo wear, and new website. So keep this in mind when you do the design. IMPORTANT: I prefer to only pay with PayPal. If you are the winner and IF you must have a different form of payment that charges to send money(like Western Union) I will only pay with Western Union if you agree that the cost to send payment comes out of the prize money. For example, This contest pays the winner $125. If you win and you require Western Union and they charge me $25, then I will only send you $100. I have ran many contests here before. We have a very good name and have always, always, taken care of our graphic artist. We reserve the right, as always, to delcare "no winner" if nothing meets our needs. By the way, the contest ends on the 15th - and the winner will be chosen at a meeting on the 16th (in the evening.)
