STEWARDSHIP • • • • Through Dec. 31, 495 individuals and families have either completed a Newman Promise commitment form or committed to a continued gift through Buckeye Catholic Direct, bringing our 2014-15 goal of $650,000 in commitments within reach. Gifts totaling $20,000 have been secured for new parking lot lighting for the safety and security of all. We are obtaining estimates for installation this spring. Expenses were lower through Dec. 31 since several budgeted repairs were deferred to the spring, including sacristy heating/ cooling, moveable wall repairs and exterior painting of the Paulist House. Expenses for these deferred maintenance items will diminish our cash reserves that totaled $371,209 at Dec. 31, but we will continue to work hard to keep our cash reserves at a prudent level equivalent to three months’ expenses, approximately $300,000. Many thanks to all who support Catholic campus ministry at Ohio State with your prayers, your gifts and your service.
