{ | The golden dove in chief is in honor of the patron Saint of the cathedral and also taken from the arms of Pope [[Pius XII]] (where the dove is silver) who created the diocese in 1943. | ||
The golden anvil in base symbolizes the industrial landscape that has dominated much of Northeastern Ohio. | |||
The silver wavy bar symbolizes the River Mahoning which flows through the city of Youngstown. The river's name is taken from a native American word that means ¨at the lick¨ where the tribes settled. Two arrowheads, again representing the first residents of the area, flank a cross which was taken from the arms of the [{Diocese of Cleveland]], from which Youngstown was formed, symbolzign the faith that is passed on from one Christian community to another and from generation to generation. | |||
The use of the color green is not further explanated, not for the filed and not for the arrowheads and crosslet. | |||
