Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
Unfortunately we have no information on the meaning or origin of these arms yet.
If you have any information on the origin or meaning of these arms, or have additional images that you want to share, please mail us your information !
The Motto of Bishop Robert Lynch is "Pro Amicis suis" meaning "For His friends", taken from the Gospel of St. John (15:13). This phrase expresses the deep belief and faith that to truly be a friend of Christ we too must be willing to lay down our lives for our friends as He did for us.
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop by instruction of the Holy See, of March 1969, confirmed in March 2001.
