Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The arms honor Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception, with an additional tribute repeated in the blue crescent. The gold border surrounding the shield represents the wisdom of God and the trust that He places in the men called to the Office of Bishop; Eight Red Roses honors Our Lady of Guadalupe and his embrace of the Hispanic Apostolate; the large golden monstrance is emblematic of the Blessed Sacrament commemorating Pope John Paul II's Year of the Eucharist, that coincided with Bishop's Episcopal ordination, as well as paying homage to family ties to the Church of Blessed Sacrament; The Christ monogram additionally honors Blessed John Paul II, whose original grave in the papal crypt bore this holy cipher; left of the monstrance is a Cross Fleury symbolic of holy poverty vowed by Saint Vincent de Paul, as well as being the black heraldic color of the priesthood; right of the monstrance are two upright keys bound by knotted cords representing what is bound by the Church on Earth, is bound in Heaven, as Christ affirmed in Sacred Scripture.
Emblems for St. Vincent de Paul and St. John Vianney are included for both spiritual and symbolic reasons. Saint Vincent is the patron of the Congregation of the Mission, the order of priests that he had founded, and also of the Daughters of Charity. Both religious orders helped mold the life and priesthood of the bishop; The Cross of Saint Kevin is the emblem of his patron saint, with the inclusion of a red nuby center, symbolic of the red apple of pious legend; Below the shield is the insignia of office of a Knight Commander of the Equestrian Order of the Holy Sepulchre of Jerusalem, the rank that Bishop Vann holds at the time of his episcopal ordination.
Bishop Vann's motto is: IN FIDE ET DILECTIONE IN CHRISTO IESU from Saint Paul's second letter to Timothy (Chapter 1:13-14), which reads- "Take as your norm the sound words that you have heard from me, in faith and love that are in Chrtst Jesus"
