Argent, a chevron enhanced between in chief two trefoils and in base a point in point vert, the latter charged with a dove close without legs of the field.
Motto: In justitia et veritate
Origin/meaning
The green chevron and the two shamrocks (trefoils) are from the arms of the Corrigan family of Ireland, differenced by the dove, one of the symbols of Gregory the Great, Pope, Confessor and Doctor of the Church, the titular of the parish of which Bishop Corrigan was the pastor until the end of his life.
The motto is taken from the Epistle of St. Paul to the Ephesians, Chapter 5, verse 9: Fructus enim lucis est in omni bonitate, justitia et veritate, which is translated "For the fruit of the light is in all goodness and justice and truth".
