Impaled. Dexter: Argent, on a cross throughout gules, cantoned by four mullets azure, a Cherokee Rose or (See of Savannah); Sinister: Per chevron or and vert, a carpenter's square in chevron argent between two lions Passant in chief gules and in base a sun in its splendour of the first (McDonough).<br> | |||
Motto : Nihil sine Deo | |||
===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 of the Bishop are based on that of the McDonough family of Ireland and which bore: Per chevron invected or and vert, in chief two lions passant guardant gules, in base a boar passant argent armed and bristled of the first, langued of the third. <br> | |||
The colors, the position of the two lions and the division per chevron are the same, but this shield has been made peculiar to the Bishop by a slight change in the position of the heads of the lions and by a brisure of a chevron | |||
and a "sun in its splendor." The chevron is the shape of a carpenter's square and represents St. Joseph, the Foster Father of Our Lord, whose name the Bishop bears. The sun is one of the symbols in ecclesiastical art of St. Thomas Aquinas, confessor and doctor of the Church, his other baptismal name patron. Red and gold, the sole colors of the chief, are the tinctures of the coat of arms of the Count Aquino, the father of St. Thomas Aquinas. The heads of the lions face the left instead of the spectator as in the original McDonough arms, to honor the family name (Nolan) of the Bishop's mother, since a lion thus turned is a common charge on the Nolan shields. | |||
The motto: Nihil sine Deo means "Nothing can be done without the help of God". | |||
