Meeting Guidelines
• Goal is to provide transparency and seek input from the parish on our 2015 Budget Process

• Meeting is NOT an opportunity to– Revise specific numbers in the budget– Review past decisions regarding the school closing– Lobby for or against specific areas
• Presentation + Q&A = 60 minutes
St. Monica Parish Vision
We are one, enthusiastic disciples of Jesus Christ who bring God’s love to all.
St. Monica Parish Pastoral Priorities
• Sunday Experience – Our community is based on a personal relationship centered around the Eucharist within the context of active and vibrant liturgy.
• Youth – Recognizing Saint Monica's ceaseless prayerful determination, we will demonstrate God's love to our youth.
• Service & Outreach – Recognizing we are the church, we accept the responsibility to enthusiastically promote a vibrant community engaging and welcoming all.
Finance Council Purpose
• Assist the pastor in monitoring and utilizing the temporal resources of the community to support the needs of the parish
• Areas of responsibility– Long-range financial and physical needs planning– Assess adequacy of the resources to meet annual
goals and plans approved by our pastor– Review quarterly financials and assist in the
dissemination of financial information to parish community

The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
• The Good – We have come a long way from the severe financial distress the
parish faced just two short years ago due in large part to the parish rallying with sustainability reserves and a generous bequest
• The Bad– Unfortunately giving has not increased, net net we are losing
parishioners and our expenses many not within our control are going up
• The Ugly– Our facilities are in need of repair – roofs, boilers, etc. after
years of neglect

Key Factors Impact Revenues
• Collections have remained flat since 2013 despite efforts to increase
• Religious Education Fees benefited in 2013 from summer session one-time revenues, but are now at lower steady level
• The Cambridge School has decided not to renew their lease resulting in significant loss of rental income.
Key Factors Impacting Expenses
• Diocesan assessment will increase in FY 2015 due to new calculation method
• Payroll and benefits will increase with addition of a part-time Youth Minister, part-time Facilities Manager, and mandatory increased retirement and health insurance costs (Diocesan Plan)
• Administration was impacted in FY2014 due to expense for changeover of pastor, but FY2015 should return to prior levels
• Office expense will be impacted by need to replace aging computer equipment
Key Factors Impacting Expenses
• Parish Formation and Outreach spending has risen in order to invest in the mission (Youth High School group, ASK series, …)
• Tuition Subsidy continues to rise as area schools increase their tuition
• Utilities and Maintenance costs have increased this year with extreme weather conditions, aging equipment that requires additional service, and increased cleaning and maintenance services
• Property Insurance and Taxes benefited from lower levels when the school closed, but are now expected to rise due to higher insurance premiums
Key Factors Impacting Capital Expenses
• Significant investments in facility repairs are needed– Parish Center and Church roof needs major repairs– Boilers and control units need to be replaced
What is the Finance Council Doing?
• Outside firms hired:– RGI Group
• Review facilities & make recommendations• Parish Center roof most pressing issue/leakage• Holding parish focus group meetings to give input into budget and
future facilities decisions
– Flynn and Co: • Re-negotiate with Cambridge• Look for a new tenant (which could take over a year)
• If the building lot is sold we will consider paying off our debt to reduce interest costs to the parish
• Promoting electronic giving
Financial Assessment
Reserves remain adequate to pay back the Archdiocese loan and address facility repairs*.
