The design of the centennial logo attempts to capture a bit of the story behind the Church of God's earliest days as a movement on the island and the theme of the Celebrations: "Hitherto, Witherto." The work in Barbados was started by a Barbadian, Bro. Philip Scantlebury. He gathered a small group in Mile & A Quarter under a tamarind tree (silhouette in the background). 18 churches and 2000 members later, the movement continues to be a vital part of Kingdom building in Barbados.
