priest.
The gold pelican over His heart represents self-sacrifice.
The border contains an altar and grapevines, representing the Mass, and icons of
Melchizedek and St. Jean-Baptiste Vianney.
Melchizedek: king of righteousness (left icon) was priest and king of Jerusalem.
St. Jean-Baptiste Vianney is the patron saint of parish priests.
He blessed Abraham and has been considered an ideal priest-king.
