Bishop Krawczak is proud of his Polilsh ancestry and thus chose the common wrought iron emblem that can be found atop the wayside shrines in Poland. This emblem is a good representation of Polish Folk art. It | |||
portrays the faith of Bishop Krawczak's heritage and his own inner vision. The cross is a glory cross figuring joy. The rooster on top is a frequent symbol in Polish art and is the rooster announcing the hour of salvation and judgment when Peter denied the Lord during the Passion. The moon at the bottom is a sign of the Blessed Virgin Mary, to whom the Bishop is particularly devoted. The red and silver are the colours of Poland. | |||
[[Heraldic literature - Ecclesiastical heraldry|'''Literature''']]: | The motto, "Serve with Gladness", is a fruit of Bishop Krawczak's prayer and a good description of his life style. | ||
