The cross is taken from the arms of the [[Archdiocese of Indianapolis]], of which  Bishop  Wilkerson  is now titular Bishop. Placed behind the cross is a wooden shepherd's staff to signify the office to which his Excellency has now been called, following in the footsteps of his baptismal patrons: St. Gerald, who was an abbot in the 8th century in Ireland, and St. Eugene, who was a bishop at Carthage in the 6th century. The shepherd's staff is also symbolic of the many years Bishop Wilkerson spent as a parish priest and pastor and the love he has for pastoral ministry.
