* (personal arms) Per fess Or and Azure, a lion rampant per fess Gules and Or, standing on a mound of rock Argent. | |||
===Origin/meaning=== | ===Origin/meaning=== | ||
In the upper portion of the shield, gold and the lion are derived from the arms of Cardinal [[Theodore Edgar McCarrick]], whom Bishop Farrell assists as an auxiliary bishop. The lower portion of the lion in gold derives from the Irish clan of O’Farrell. In this instance, blue has been substituted for the green of the O’Farrell Arms, to honor Our Lady of Lourdes, upon whose feast Bishop Farrell received ordination in the episcopate at the hands of the Cardinal Archbishop of Washington. | |||
In the base of the shield is a silver mound of rock, symbolic of Bishop Farrell’s patron, Saint Kevin (d.c. 618). After ordination Saint Kevin settled as a hermit at Glendalough (Co. Wicklow, Ireland), in a cave called "St. Kevin’s Bed" formerly a Bronze Age rock tomb. | |||
The motto, STATE IN FIDE, "Steadfast in Faith," is from Saint Paul’s epistle to the Colossians 1:23, and complements the rock mound and the lion who holds an honorable position in biblical history. | |||
