The Roman Catholic Diocese of Goroka is a suffragan diocese of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Rabaul. It was erected in 2003.

Coat of arms

The new coat of arms of the Diocese was adopted in 2016. The proposal of coat of arms created Marek Sobola, a heraldic specialist from Slovakia, who also made a redesign of coat of arms for the bishop William Fey, O.F.M. Cap.[1]
