Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
Bishop Jerry Vincke's coat of arms reflects his motto "Rich in Mercy," while honoring the history of his new diocese. The area of Bishop Vincke's arms includes a chalice and palen, encircled by a wreath with grapes, grape vines and wheat ears, all representative of lhe Eucharist. The blue ribbon on the wreath is a nod to the traditional color for Mary, as is the blue area above the wrealh. Inside the blue area of the arms is a fleur-de-lys, the symbol for Mary as the 'Immaculate Conception' which is her title in the United States.
Behind Bishop Vincke's coat of arms is the episcopal cross, which is rich in symbolism. With the olive leaves on the cross, which reference both St. Francis and St. John Vianney. The red garnet stone is a nod to St. Ignatius of Loyola.
Mercy is the major theme of St. Luke's Gospel and is mentioned throughout the New Testament, including: Ephesians 2: 4-5 "But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions - it is by grace you have been saved....", Hebrews 4:16 16 "Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need" ; and Titus 3:5 "He saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit..."
