Gules, a cross eschewed to chief dexter Argent, charged with three stars Azure,. in chief dexter a lion rampant Or; holding a heart of the second, the heart crowned of the third; to base sinister two pilgrim's staffs of the third.

Origin/meaning

On a red field is a silver cross that is eschewed to chief dexter as used by Pope John Paul II. This symbolism is used to honer His Holiness, the Pope, for having called Bishop Reiss to the fullness of the priesthood in the episcopal order and it is rendered in the color of the Polish national flag to reflect Bishop Reiss' heritage. The Archdiocese of Detroit is represented in the design by the three blue stars placed upon the cross.

To the upper left of the design is a gold lion rampant holding a silver heart that is surmounted by a gold crown. This device is indicative of Sacred Heart Seminary where Bishop Reiss received his seminary education and which he served in several capacities during his priestly ministry. To the lower right are two pilgrim's staffs on gold. These poles with attached satchels indicate that as instructed by the Gospel, pilgrims carry only what is necessary for the journey and that as the people of God called by Christ to make this journey of faith, we make this journey together.

It is to this end of unencumbered faith that His Excellency has chosen the Latin phrase "IN CHRISTO OMNIA" for his motto. Taken from St. Paul's Letter to the Philippians (4:13) this motto also served as the foundation for the mission and ministry of St. Frances Cabrini, the patroness of the parish, which Bishop Reiss currently serves as pastor.

The device is completed with the external ornaments which are a gold processional cross, which is placed in back of the shield and which extends above and below the shield, and a pontifical hat, called a "gallero," with its six tassels, in three rows, on either side of the shield, all in green. These are the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop by instruction of the Holy See of March 31, 1969.
