GB Badge

All over the world, Girls’ Brigade members wear the same badge. The badge has 4 main elements, each with a special meaning to those who wear it.

In the centre a Cross, the symbol of Christ and His Church. Below it a Lamp, that our light may shine out upon the world.

Above the Lamp is a Crown, that we may own Christ as our King. Behind all a Torch, the flame of Christ’s living Spirit and our devotion to Him.
