- (personal half) The arms of the Redemptorists impaling: Barry of eight argent and gules, the first bar charged with a roundel gules.
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 Bishop impales in his personal half the arms of his Congregation with his personal symbols. These latter are based on the arms of an (unrelated) Willinger family of Bavaria, who bear in the lower half of their shield four horizontal stripes of alternate silver and red. These have been used to symbolise the name of the bishop. The number of bars has been enlarged to eight in imitation of the coat of the prelate's name Patron, St. Aloysius Gonzaga, as the arms of the Italian Gonzaga family used eight horizontal stripes of alternate gold and black. The arms thus are similar in design to St. Aloysius's, but in Willinger colors.
The red roundel is from the arms of Pope Pius XI, as a mark of homage.
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop.
