Thank you!

Patron Saints Index: St. Ignatius

This site lists:
•apparition of Our Lord
•book
•chasuble
•Holy Communion

My Nameday, Come for Dessert lists these symbols:
•heart with 3 nails
•The letters IHS or AMDG (Latin for: "All for the greater glory of God") belong on the book cake for St. Ignatius Loyola, founder of the Society of Jesus.

Wikipedia also mentions a shield of his St. Ignatius' family.

This is the symbol of the Jesuits. I think it's a really neat symbol.
