The black pale is use to signify the "Road to Emmaus" and is the first clear proof of how the disciples found Christ, mainly in the Breaking of the Bread. On this road, are a host (silver charged with a red cross) and an open book, (silver edged in gold and charged with a red alpha and omega.) | |||
The Bishop's Motto," STAY WITH US, LORD," is taken from the Emmaus story in Luke's Gospel, (Luke 24:29) and is used to signify the twenty one years that Bishop Maginnis has spent in youth ministry. The motto expresses the goal and the aim of all young people and of the Bishop, that the Lord, in His Grace, and His Love, in His Word and in His Sacraments will stay with us all our lives. | |||
