The Meaning of the Dove

Early Christians often had a dove on their Tombs as a symbol of the Peace and Happiness of the soul.  Occassionally in the earliest Christian art the dove is used as a symbol of the Holy Spirit. Later it was very common.  The dove is also a symbol of peace. In Genesis 8 after the flood, a dove returned to Noah with an olive branch in its beak, revealing the end of God's judgment and the beginning of a new covenant with man. This is why we use it as the background on our web pages.
