DIOCESE OF BAKER PROPERTY MAINTENANCE FUND

OVERVIEW

In 2008, an anonymous donor gifted to the Diocese monies to establish the Diocesan Properties Maintenance Fund. This Fund will provide annual support to all the properties of the Diocese, such as the Chancery, Retreat Center, Bishop Vasa’s and Bishop Connolly’s residences, Camps, and other current and future properties of the Diocese.


When one looks to the future for 20-50-100+ years, the needs of maintenance of properties will grow. It is with great thankfulness that this fund has been established to serve the needs of many in the Diocese of Baker.
