The Patriarchal Cross is taken from the coat of arms of [[Slovakia]], and has been used as a symbol of the Slovak nation for centuries. All of Bishop Deliman's grandparents immigrated to the United States from Slovakia. | |||
Bishop Deliman's baptismal patron, Saint Edward the Confessor, ruled as King of England from 1003 to 1066. His alleged arms are traditionally depicted as a Cross flory surrounded by five small birds called martlets. To recall Saint Edward, Bishop Deliman places the Slovak Cross on his shield amid five small charges as well. Here the charges are five roses, traditional symbols of Saint Rita of Cascia (1371-1447), an Italian Augustinian nun whose powerful heavenly intercession is widely sought in difficult and desperate need. Bishop Deliman has promoted devotion to Saint Rita for many years, after having received extraordinary help for a family member through her intercession. | Bishop Deliman's baptismal patron, Saint Edward the Confessor, ruled as King of England from 1003 to 1066.

The rising sun also alludes to the fact the Bishop Deliman's ordination a bishop falls during the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy convoked by Pope [[Francis]]. In the canticle known as the Benedictus (Luke 1:68-79), Saint Zechariah prophesies that his newborn son, Saint John the Baptist, will announce the salvation and forgiveness that Christ will bring "through the tender mercy of our God, when the day shall dawn upon us from on high" (v. 78). The same theme is echoed in the motto on the scroll below the shield, the first words of the Fifth Beatitude: "Blessed are the merciful, for they shall obtain mercy" (Matthew 5:7). | The rising sun also alludes to the fact the Bishop Deliman's ordination a bishop falls during the Extraordinary Jubilee of Mercy convoked by Pope [[Francis]].
