CLEVELAND, Ohio— The Catholic Diocese of Cleveland released its annual report to the community on Sunday.
The letter includes a full accounting of the parishes that were either closed or merged during the Diocesan reconfiguration plan.
According to the report, the sale of parish properties, combined with money transferred to the Diocese from the closed parishes, brought in more than $19 million. That’s in comparison to just $5 million in expenses. Most importantly, the Diocese says almost $8 million from the sales have been given back to open parishes.
