===Origin/meaning=== | |||
As common episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop. | |||
The personal half of the arms shows in chief the arms of the Order of Friars Minor Capuchin to which the bishop belongs. | |||
The lower half shows a cross for Christianity and two chequy fields taken from the arms of the [[Pittsburgh|city]] and [[Diocese of Pittsburgh]], where the bishop was born. The fleur-de-lys is a symbol of St. Mary and the sword represents St. Michael, patron saint of Papua New Guinea. | |||
