"The star is a representation of Christ’s Light in all of us and the light of the gospel in this world. I think that stars are one of the most beautiful creations made by our Heavenly Father. I could not think of a better symbol to use to represent the theme because every night a star shines forth in the darkness of the night and manifests His majesty—just as we can do for all those who are searching for Christ and for all the world. Our light cannot be hidden in darkness. In a world that is full of lost people searching for light in the darkness, our light will shine forth like a star in the night."
