===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 red shield represents his deep devotion to the Sacred Heart. The red and silver are also the colors of the [[Poland|Polish National Arms]] as he is proud to be ethnically connected to Poland. The two crossed, golden swords represent, one, a deep devotion to the defender of the Faith, St. Michael the Archangel, and two, his many years of service to the U.S. Army where he currently holds the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. The book and swords is placed below the silver fleur-de-lys which exonerates the Blessed Virgin Mary. The book and the swords are also placed below the silver eight pointed star, which symbolize the light of truth, which is also placed within the design to honor St.Dominic, the founder of the Order of Preachers. | |||
The motto "LIFE IS CHRIST" is taken from St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians, which signifies a deep belief for Catholic Christians. | |||
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop by instruction of the Holy See, of March 1969, confirmed in March 2001. | |||
