Picture
Last night in 2013 host city Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the winning design in the official logo contest was revealed - the fruit of a young man's faith and prayer.

Gustavo Huguenin, a 25 year-old graphic designer from Cantagalo just outside Rio, said it was an "attitude of faith" that led him to enter the competition, and "by the grace of God" that his logo was chosen.

The image will now be used all over the world in preparation for next year's gathering with the Holy Father, and feature prominently at the event itself.  It reflects the theme "Go, make disciples of all nations" (Matt. 28:19).

Read Gustavo's inspiring story here and see below for a close up and explanation of his design.
