Arms impaled. Dexter: Azure, on a fess Or between in chief two celestial crown of the second and at the base point two barrulets wavy Argent, a palm branch slipped and proper. Sinister: Argent, a open volume inverted with the cover Gules and edged Or, the spine charges with an Alpha above an Omega, the front cover with the skewed cross of John Paul II and the back cover with a fleur-de-lis above a crescent, all of the third; issuant from base, upon two hills of the third, three fur trees Vert, the center one with its roots visible Tenne, below two Moorcocks Sable, crested of the second.
Origin/meaning
The current arms show arms of the Diocese of Palm Beach and the arms of the bishop himself.
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.
Issuant from the base of the arms are the two golden hills with the three pine trees taken from the arms of the Salesians of Don Bosco because the life Saint John Bosco is for Bishop Barbarito the epitome of parish priesthood. The center tree has its roots emphasized to reflect a variation on the Bishop’s name which comes from the Italian for “roots.” Above the trees are two black moorcocks, with red crests, taken from the arms of Saint Thomas More. They are used because of the Bishop’s deep devotion to Saint Thomas, for as a Canon Lawyer, it was on his feast that the Bishop first began his work in the Brooklyn Chancery Offices and it was on Saint Thomas’ feast that the his Excellency was informed of his select to become a bishop.
For his motto Bishop Barbarito has chosen the phrase “VERITATEM FACIENTES IN CARITATE.” This phrase, which translated into English means “Let us profess the truth in love,” is taken from Saint Paul’s Epistle to the Ephesians (Eph. 4:15). By this phrase, the Bishop expresses that as Christians we are all called to profess and teach The Truth, which is Christ, in love to all.
The device is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop by instruction of The Holy See of March 31, 1969.
