IHS is a Christogram or a shortened version of the name of Our Lord. IHS stands for the first 3 letters of Jesus name in Greek (iota - eta - sigma) but when you write these letters in Latin script you write them IHS (not IES). It can also stand for 'Iesus Hominem Salvator' which means 'Jesus, Saviour of Men' in Latin. You'll find it on lots of gravestones and church furniture in the UK (if you ever come for a visit - which I very much hope you do!).<br />God bless you all <br />MichelleBaleboostehhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17311117498421494780noreply@blogger.com
