From History class I know this one: Dulce et decorum est, pro patria mori. Which means 'It is sweet and proper to die for one's country'.
And from being in the Marines I know this: Semper Fidelis = Always Faithful.
Hmmm...you could have it say Fidelis Apostata...Faithful Apostate.
Or the Coast Guard's motto, "Semper Paratus", Always Prepared.
i got the "ΓΌ" on my keyboard ;-)

Geez. Talk about totally missing my name.
DannyBloem is more than correct: apostata. It looks like a feminine noun of the first declension, but it's really one of those few masculine nouns of the first declension.
Looking in the Lexicon (as Ecclesiastical Latin is obscure to me), apparently there's a verb which means "to apostatize": apostato, apostatare.
