Origin/meaning

The main part of Bishop Campbell's coat of arms is derived from the arms of Saint Edward the Confessor, the bishop's second baptismal patron, with the difference that the original cross fleuretty is replaced with a cross bottony quartered in gold and silver, taken from the arms of the Archdiocese of Washington.

The lion in the chief is from the arms of Cardinal Theodore Edgar McCarrick, who guided Bishop Campbell through his discernment of his call to the holy priesthood, and signifies as well the arms of Cardinal James Aloysius Hickey, who accepted Bishop Campbell into ministerial formation to the Permanent Diaconate, and of Pope Saint John XXIII, for whom the seminary in Weston, Massachusetts, where Bishop Campbell received his formation, is named.

The tower is taken from the arms of Cardinal Donald William Wuerl, who ordained Bishop Campbell as a priest and as a bishop.

In the center of the chief is a modern abstract sculpture of the Holy Family in gold, to show that all of God's people are calfed to be integral members of the holy life of a family, of the family of the Church, and of the family of mankind.

Bishop Campbell's motto is, "Do whatever he tells you," the Blessed Virgin Mary's statement to the helpers at the wedding feast at Cana.

The achievement is completed with the external ornaments of bishop.
