The two pierced hands are a symbol for St. Francis of Assisi, the second patron of the bishop. The hands also refer to the Franciscan monks, who were the first missionaries in California.
The lion's head is taken to represent the mother of the bishop Annie Farrell, and is taken from some (unrelated) Farrell family arms.
