As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop. | |||
The upper half of the design is divided into two halves to represent the two branches of the Cahill family. The upper quarter is blue and displays a silver whale and the lower quarter is composed of six triangles in the two alternating colors of green and silver. | |||
The lower half of the Bishop's design is red and displays a lion between two swords, all in silver. This represents the Bishop's mother's side of the family, the Dempseys. | |||
For his motto, His Excellency, Bishop Cahill has adopted the Latin phrase: COR MUNDUM CREA TN ME DEUS. This phrase, from the 51st Psalm, expresses Bishop Cahill's deep confidence in the mercy of God. | |||
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. | |||
