The Eck Endowment Fund to support other ministries was established with a generous $50,000 endowment by Mr. Frank Eck in 2011. Each year $3,500 is given to Cathedral ministries. This year Finance Council received over $14,000 worth of grant requests. After careful deliberation, they recommended the following:
- $400 for the purchase of new altar cloths
- $2,800 to refurbish the classrooms
- $300 for Catechesis of the Good Shepherd Training
Council also recommended using $1,400 in the regular budget to polish and lacquer the tabernacle doors for all 4 side altars and another $1,000 for additional altar cloths. We appreciate all the grant requests and look forward to receiving parishioner’s ideas in the future.
