ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE ARCHDIOCESE OF CHICAGO ISSUED
Increased Contributions Lead to Improved Financial Position
Chicago, IL (December 20, 2007) - The report for its fiscal year ending June 30, 2007, indicates that the financial condition of the Catholic Archdiocese of Chicago has improved. The parishes and the ministries operating out of the Pastoral Center benefited from record contributions to both the Annual Catholic Appeal and to Sunday collections. Additional benefits have also been realized through improved expense control. Other factors such as continuing costs related to the settlement of sexual misconduct claims, changes to the lay employee benefits and contribution plan, and new accounting rules that required the Archdiocese to recognize costs related to medical benefits provided to retired priests, all had large financial impacts.
