===Origin/meaning=== | |||
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop. | |||
The personal field is divided by the Cross of Saint George to honor the baptismal patron of the bishop and his father. The fleur-de-lis honors the Blessed Virgin Mary as well as the bishop's mother. | |||
The pale is taken from the arms of a Cunningham family and symbolises his grandmother, who was named Cunningham. The pallium is also part of the arms of the [[Archdiocese of Dublin]] and thus also refers to his Irish ancestry. | |||
The motto is taken from the first letter of St. John. | |||
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop. | |||
