STEWARDSHIP COMMISSION Overview The Stewardship Commission facilitates the sustainable use of the Cathedral’s resources to help bring Christ to life in our community. Members identify, analyze, and recommend strategies to develop long-term, quality pastoral ministries, programs and activities by encouraging our community to live the Gospel message of stewardship: the giving of time, talent, and treasure. Among their many roles, Commission members assist in the financial management of our parish and the physical preservation of its buildings and grounds. Their area of influence includes the Facilities and Maintenance Committee, the Development Committee, the Preservation Trust, Legacy Giving, and the Finance Committee. They are actively involved in our parish’s budgeting and planning work, as well as diocesan appeal efforts. This year, the Stewardship Commission partnered with the Vocations Committee to promote the Cathedral’s Vocation Awareness program. They helped launch the highly-popular Traveling Chalice program to promote awareness of our need for priests and other consecrated religious men and women to carry on the work of our parish. The Stewardship Commission welcomes parishioner involvement! To learn how you can participate on any of the committees email Stewardship@cathedralofmary.org. We hope to hear from you! Capital Campaign The capital campaign, Embracing Our Mission, which started in 2011-2012, continues to yield results. Three hundred and eighty seven Cathedral families have pledged $2,070,399 toward our goal of $2.5 million. Parishioners have been encouraged to make pledges to be fulfilled over time, up to five years. Although active solicitation has ceased, it's still possible to contribute through envelopes in the pews designated to the campaign. The Cathedral’s campaign is part of the Archdiocese of Baltimore's larger effort to raise $100 million, with different parishes joining in each year. The Cathedral and the Archdiocese are sharing the proceeds as follows: 15% of the first $1,770,000, or $265,000, goes to the Cathedral with the remainder going to the Archdiocese. Anything beyond $1,700,000 all stays with the Cathedral. Thus of the $2,070,399 pledged so far, the Cathedral will keep $300,399, with more to come. At our parish level, the funds will be applied to build more classrooms at the School of the Cathedral, repave church walkways, renovate the rectory kitchen, fund the school endowment, and add to the Preservation Trust. Previous capital campaigns have funded the Preservation Trust, which provides important financial support for repairs and maintenance for Cathedral buildings and grounds. For information on the Preservation Trust and how to make a contribution, please email Stewardship@cathedralofmary.org. 34 Cathedral of Mary Our Queen | <strong>2013</strong> Yearbook
