Staying Connected

Greetings Fellow Parishioners,

This week we are sharing our annual summary of Christ the King – St. Stephen Parish’s financial results for 2025 and our budget for 2026. You will find the financial summary in this bulletin, or you may click the link here if you are reading this in our email newsletter.

Thanks to your generosity and careful stewardship by our staff, we ended 2025 with a modest surplus of just under $72,000, or 3.7% of our operating budget. We are grateful for this positive result as we work diligently to keep expenses within our income.

Our operating income in 2025 remained essentially flat compared to 2024, but through careful management our operating expenses decreased by nearly 4%. This combination allowed us to finish the year in the black. Thank you for your continued support of our parish and for helping make this possible.

Your generosity also extended beyond parish operations. In 2025, parishioners donated approximately $335,000 to St. Vincent de Paul and other Social Justice charities. We are deeply grateful for your compassion and commitment to serving those in need. Our St. Vincent de Paul volunteers continue to partner with Hillcrest Congregational Church to provide food, services, and limited rent assistance to many families in our community.

Mass Presentation Slides

In addition to supporting our ministries, 2025 was also a year for a significant capital improvement effort. We successfully completed a major roofing project at Christ the King Church. As many of you may recall, we discovered serious hidden damage caused by a design flaw that required the roof to be completely redesigned and rebuilt.

During this project, our Masses were temporarily relocated to the St. Stephen campus for four months. We were truly blessed to have that space available, and we are grateful for the warm welcome from the St. Stephen community and for everyone’s patience during this time of construction.

To complete this project, we asked for your financial help—and you responded generously. The roofing campaign reached 106% of its goal, allowing us to fully cover the cost of the project. A few pledges are still being fulfilled over time. Any funds received beyond the final project cost will remain in our building fund to help rebuild our reserves and prepare for future facility needs.

With the roofing project now complete, one of our next priorities is to rebuild our parish financial reserves. We paused these efforts while focusing on the roof replacement, and our reserves remain below prudent levels.

Strengthening our reserves will help ensure that our parish can continue its ministries with confidence, stability, and the ability to respond to future needs. The $72,000 surplus from last year’s budget is a first step in that direction.

We thank God for the dedication of our parish community and for the leadership of Fr. Paulson, Facilities Committee Chair John Kluesener, and our hardworking parish staff. Your generosity continues to sustain our parish and allow our ministries to flourish.

On behalf of Christ the King–St. Stephen Finance Council, thank you for your faith, your commitment, and your continued support of our parish.
