The Dove Emblem on APQS Machines

[mlsa3]

I haven't asked a question in a few days so while waiting for "her highness" to wake I thought I would ask a question that I've been meaning to ask for a while now.

 

The "dove" emblem on APQS machines....does anyone know the story behind it?  Is it a Christian symbol or is it not a dove?  Being a christian it always warms my heart when I see it but then it might not have anything to do with Christianity.  And no I'm not trying to start a debate or anything on religion.

 

I'll still love APQS no matter what the symbol stands for.  I just have a curious mind.

 

 

 

Ok...I'm a bit slow this morning.  I did a search and found part of a thread about the dove.  Seems the original owners put it on the machines as a show of their faith....when they sold the company to 3 people part of the deal was that the dove had to stay on each machine.  I couldn't find the original posts that went more into detail but got the feeling that this company is run on Christian principles.  Just another reason I want to one day own an APQS machine.

Here is the original link to the reason for the dove, however when I click on the link in this link I don't go anywhere but I think you'll get the idea from the thread...http://forum.apqs.co...to-ask/?hl=dove

 

Oh I found that post....http://forum.apqs.co...estion/?hl=dove

I used to have a bible cover with the exact same dove symbol on it.  Every time I see it I start humming gospel choruses from the 1970's.
