After seeing my recent post about the coat of arms of the Archbishop of Southwark another readers reader of this blog pointed out to me the coat of arms of another prelate from the UK. Archbishop Paul Gallagher (71) is the Secretary for Relations with States & International Organisations, in the Secretariat of State of the Holy See.

Ordained for Liverpool in 1977 he entered the diplomatic corps of the Holy See in 1984. Gallagher previously served as Nuncio to Burundi, to Guatemala and to Australia. He had also served as an official in Tanzania, Uruguay and the Philippines and became an archbishop in 2004.
