About the Diocesan Council for Financial Affairs:
The Diocese of Metuchen relies on a Diocesan Council for Financial Affairs, a consultative body which exists to advise the Bishop on financial matters affecting the diocese. Formed in accord with Canon 492, the Diocesan Finance Council in the Diocese of Metuchen is comprised of six lay professionals, two priests and one deacon who are “Christian faithful truly expert in Financial affairs and civil law, outstanding in integrity, and appointed by the bishop.” Each member serves a term of three to five years at the conclusion of which they may be appointed for an additional five-year term. The Council meets quarterly, with the Bishop present, during which time it monitors diocesan finances; reviews the diocesan annual audit and parish financial audits; examines the account of revenue and expenses; and prepares the diocesan budget.
