Official blazon
- (personal arms) Silver, three bars gules, the topmost debruised by a gold horse-shoe; on a chief gules a silver eagle.
Origin/meaning
As common in US episcopal heraldry, the arms show the arms of the diocese impaled with the personal arms of the bishop.
The horseshoe is taken from the arms of Saint Stanislaus, his name Patron, while the chief shows the arms of Saint Casimir, of whose church in Chicago he was Pastor.
I have no information on the silver and red bars.
