 ===Origin/meaning===
-{{missing}}
+The red eagle on a silver field is taken from the arms of the Joyce family. The open book with the letters IHS, taken from the arms of the Society of Jesus, refer to the Bishop's baptismal patron, Saint Robert Bellarmine, bishop and doctor of the Church, canonized in 1923, and a member of the Jesuit Order.
+The triple knotted cord is for Saint Francis of Assisi, the other Prelate's patron saint.
+The three roses in chief refer to the Rosary of Our Lady, the red rose indicating the sorrowful mysteries, and the two golden ones indicating the joyful and glorious mysteries. Bishop Joyce was born on the feast of the Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary.
+The motto is taken from Saint John's Gospel, 10: 10: "I have come so that they may have life, and have it more abundantly."
