logo button finThe EASTERaction logo is a globe, part animal – represented by a beetle 1 beetle2 (1 in 4 animal species is a beetle), part plant – represented by the sunflower 2 flower (a member of the most diverse plant family), part rising sun3 sun which sustains them both. A figure 5 son of man stands in their midst. logo3o As the figure is held up by the plant and the animal, so we humans are carried by nature: we are a part of it, our survival depends on it. As the figure embraces nature, so we are called to safe-guard and protect it. The figure’s arms are raised in joy and praise, they reach out for help, and reach out to others.

The figure also represents the divine maker, ruler, helper and sustainer of all, the risen Son, arms reaching out in eternal blessing. EASTER Action is not a religious organization, and in no way exclusive, but as a team we are motivated by faith and hope in the risen God-Man, who is our Life. We rely and draw on His wisdom, love and power, His will to save His creation, and we consult Him explicitly.
