The History of the Episcopal Shield
The red cross on a white field is the St. George
Cross, an indicator of our link to the Church of England, the mother
church of the Anglican Communion. The miniature crosses in the blue
quadrant symbolize the nine original American dioceses that met in
Philadelphia in 1789 to adopt the constitution of the Protestant
Episcopal Church in the United States of America.
The outline of the miniature crosses is in the form
of St. Andrew’s Cross in tribute to the Scottish church’s role in
ordaining the first American bishop, Samuel Seabury, in 1784. The
colors red, white and blue symbolize, respectfully, the sacrifice of
Christ and Christian martyrs, the purity of the Christian faith, and
the humanity of Christ received from the Virgin Mary. In duplicating
the colors of the American flag, they also represent the Episcopal
Church’s standing as the U.S. branch of the Anglican Communion.
