The Church name, symbol, and wordmark are registered as trademarks or are otherwise legally protected worldwide. The written name of the Church is not a substitute for the Church symbol or wordmark. For more information on the Church name, see 3.4.

  • Proper typesetting. The name of the Church should always be set in a dignified and legible font and size. Do not split the words Jesus Christ; keep them on the same line.
  • Do not mimic the symbol or wordmark. Do not stack, arrange, change font sizes, add a border, or otherwise use the name to mimic the symbol or cornerstone.
  • Usage in a phrase. The Church name may be used as part of a phrase. The Church symbol or wordmark may not be used as part of a phrase.
  • Hierarchy. The Church name is frequently used with another element, such as the name of an event. Emphasize the name of the event while including the Church name (properly typeset) as a subordinate element. (See example B at right.)

Note: Local units should not use the Church symbol or wordmark in local publications. For further guidelines, see General Handbook, 38.8.8.
