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 red, blue, silver and gold are the colours employed in the arms of a Siegel family from Germany and are used here to symbolise the last name of the bishop. The shield is divided by a chevron, to be reminiscent of a "carpenter's square," to pay particular honor to the Bishop's baptismal patron, Saint Joseph, the fester father of Jesus.
In the upper portion of the design is a silver rose, to honour both the Blessed Virgin Mary, in her title of Mystical Rose, and Saint Therese, the Little Flower, to whom Bishop Siegel has particular devotion. The silver lion is taken from the arms of a Wallace family as a symbol for the last name of the mother of the Bishop. The lion is also the symbol of Saint Mark the Evangelist, also a baptismal patron of the Bishop.
The golden cross moline is classic charge used in Benedictine arms. By its presentation here, the Bishop calls to reflection his profound affection for the Order of Saint Benedict and Benedictine spirituality. The cross is placed below and between two gold fleur-de-lis, the lily form that is often associated with the Blessed Virgin and St. Joseph, and which is found in the arms of the Diocese of Joliet, the local Church in which the Bishop Siegel was baptized, ordained and served as auxiliary bishop.
The motto "In Te Domine Speravi" is taken from the closing responsories of the Te Deum and is also alluded to in Psalm 33:22. In this phrase, "In you Lord, I have placed my hope" Bishop Siegel expresses the faith of all Christians.
The achievement is completed with the heraldic insignia of a prelate of the rank of bishop by instruction of the Holy See, of March 1969, confirmed in March 2001.
