The Diocese of Grand Falls used arms since 1904. These arms consisted of four pales blue-argent, symbolising falling water for Great Falls. The crosses counterchanged on the pales honor the Most Blessed Trinity. In chief a sun on argent reflects the fact that Great Falls is located opposite to the mouth of the Sun River. | The Diocese of Grand Falls used arms since 1904.
