The Seal of the Diocese of Georgia

The seal of the Diocese of Georgia was created by the first bishop, the Rt. Rev. Stephen Elliott, Jr. The seal shows the two dates with 1733 noting the arrival of the first Anglican priest along with Georgia’s first colonists and 1823 as the date the Diocese of Georgia was organized with three parishes. The seal shows an ox standing in front of an altar and a plow with the Latin motto in utrumque paratus agere et pati, meaning “always ready for either action or sacrifice,” from which we derived “Always ready to worship and serve.”

Both the seal and the coat of arms remain authorized symbols for the Episcopal Diocese of Georgia. The seal, shown at left, is available in a variety of sizes to assist in your usage of this image:

The Coat of Arms of the Diocese

This Coat of Arms of the Diocese of Georgia was adopted in 1971. Its design was commissioned by then Bishop Paul Reeves who said the seal of the diocese would remain the same, but this could be used where a coat of arms might be appropriate. Its significance is described at our Diocesan Emblems page.

The version of the coat of arms shown above, and this image is available in a variety of sizes to assist in your usage of this crest:
