Lo stemma e il motto sono così presentati nella pagina di www.sale.catholic.org.au
His Coat of Arms features the motto Turris Fortis Mihi Deus which translates as God is a Tower of Strength to Me. The arms are based on the ancient arms of O'Faelan or O'Faolain of which Phelan is a sept. The arms are very similar to those of Bishop John Phelan, Bishop of Ossary under James II, and the motto has been borrowed from the 1831 arms of Lord Mayor of Dublin Sir Thomas Whelan (another O'Faelan sept). His official arms (at right) were not used by him, preferring instead to use the stylised arms (at left).
