The cross is a Christian symbol and here also a symbol for St. Mary (blue is her colour, a fleur-de-lys her symbol). The rose is the symbol for St. Theresa of Lisieux, the patron saint of the parish in Lennep, where he was a priest. The three crowns are the symbol of the Three Kings and are also part of the arms of the city of [[Köln]]. The black balls are taken from the arms of [[Neuss]], the place where he was born. The leaf refers to the Friedland refugee camp, where he worked for many years. | |||
