===Origin/meaning=== | ===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 personal arms emphasizes his French ancestry by the French fleur-de-lys and also contains the symbol of his patron, St. Maurice, the Roman imperial eagle. The wavy line indicates water and here it symbolizes the Mississippi River. | |||
The motto is taken from the prayer Hail Holy Queen. | |||
