Your AC is probably pretty high anyway, so you shouldn't need to use Shield all that often. Once per long rest might be enough.
Although a DM might rule you need to drop your weapon to use it, since a Holy Symbol can only be used as a focus for divine spells.
You can achieve a similar result without limited use with the Defensive Duellist feat. Tempest clerics are proficient in Rapiers.
If you just want to pick up Booming Blade, may I direct your attention to Variant Half Elf?
