Projects exceeding a cost of $50,000 require recommendation from both the Innovative Stewardship Committee and the Administration and Finance Committee as well as final approval from Executive Council. Projects under $50,000.00 do not require diocesan approval. Projects between $20,000 and $50,000 require congregational approval. Note: Projects costing more than $50,000 are not to be split into pieces, nor is a contractor to issue multiple smaller invoices to avoid needing diocesan approval.
Please include a Project description including:
-Current uses of the building/property including internal and external organization use
-Ministry goals of the project and how the project will increase the stewardship of the parish
-Impact upon the mission of the parish
-Impact upon the community beyond the parish membership
