The Parish Finance Committee manages the Parish’s finances on an ongoing basis. By far the major source of income is from the weekly collections taken at Mass, and Gift Aided Payments are a most important boost to this. The main items of expenditure are the Diocesan Levy, which is our Parish’s contribution to the financial needs of the Diocese, the running costs of the church and the Presbytery, and maintenance of all the buildings on the site.
A Financial Report is submitted to the Annual Meeting of the Parish, and this includes a summary of the Receipts and Expenses for the preceding year. The Parish finances are managed in accordance with the Diocesan guidelines set out in the Parish Administration Manual which may be viewed on the Diocesan web site: www.dabnet.org.
The current members of the Committee are set out below. Any Parishioner who has any queries about the Parish finances, or who wishes to raise any matter concerning the Church buildings, is welcome to contact any member of the Committee.
