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's arms are a version of the arms of the old Welsh clan of Ap Rhys, from whom various Pryces and Rices descend, with a personal "brisure": the wavy blue fesse may here be taken as suggestive of water, as the escallop shell, when not definitely attributed to St. James or St. Michael, may suggest simply pilgrimage.
