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 chief of the personal arms shows 5 arrowheads as a symbol for Oklahoma. I have no further information or a coloured version of these arms. Any information is welcome !
