Origin/meaning

The wavy bar represents the Arkansas river, where Pueblo is situated at the mouth of Fountain Creek on both banks of the river. The crowned and wounded heart represents the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The two roses honor St. Therese of the Child Jesus as the Patroness of the Diocese.

Red is the color of the Humanity of the Lord. The roses also designate Our Lady under her title of Mystical Rose.
