The ‘iwa bird (Great Frigatebird) is a symbol of protection, resilience and freedom.

Known as the protector of wayward seafarers, those lost at sea would look up for the ‘iwa for safe passage and to help guide them home. Also known as the Storm Bird, the ‘iwa is known for its resilience and perseverance. With a body built for extreme conditions, turbulence, high winds and extreme temperatures, the iwa is known for its ability to fly through the most challenging conditions and withstand any storm. It is beloved for its resilience, strength and grace in the face of adversity.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.

Matthew 5:16
