The arms shown an open Book of The Gospels, designated by the gold Alpha and Omega on the spine, placed upside-down to reflect how the Gospels are placed over the head of a new bishop during his episcopal ordination rite. For it is the Gospel that is the bishop’s helmet and under which he conducts all that he does. This particular book has the skewed cross from the arms of His Holiness, Pope [[John Paul II]] on its front cover to honor the holy Father who selected His Excellency for the Order of Bishop. The back cover bears a fleur-de-lis and a crescent to honor Bishops [[Francis John Mugavero]] and [[Thomas Vose Daily]] who ordained Bishop Barbarito to the priesthood and to the episcopacy. | The arms shown an open Book of The Gospels, designated by the gold Alpha and Omega on the spine, placed upside-down to reflect how the Gospels are placed over the head of a new bishop during his episcopal ordination rite.
