2012 financial report - archden.org
TRANSCRIPT
Dear Friends in Christ,
Since beginning my ministry here in July, I have beenoverwhelmed by the support and friendship I have re-ceived from the faithful of the Archdiocese of Denver. Iam grateful for your kindness. Please know that you arein my daily prayers.
I am pleased to present you with the 2012 FinancialReport of the Archdiocese of Denver. I invite you to takea few moments to read this report. Your finan-cial sacrifices and dedication deserve goodstewardship. With the assistance of those whooversee the fiscal management of the archdio-cese, I am committed to continuing the tradi-tion of prudent and thoughtful financial man-agement that the archdiocese has exercisedthroughout its history. Consistent with that tra-dition, the financial goal of the archdiocese willbe to utilize the financial resources entrusted toit in a manner that neither accumulates unnec-essary reserves nor dissipates those resources to the ex-tent that its overall financial position would not be on asound foundation.
Our fiscal health is particularly important in light ofthe opening of the Year of Faith. Pope Benedict XVI hascalled on every Catholic in the world to spend this yearentering deeply into the mystery of God’s love for us. Hehas called parishes and dioceses to support opportuni-ties for all Catholics to grow in the virtue of faith, and inlove for Jesus Christ and the Church. Our mission hasnever been more clear—the world needs Jesus Christ.We are tasked with a new evangelization, which bringsChrist to the desert of our contemporary world. OurChurch, in order to be an agent of grace, must prudent-ly and creatively steward all that we have been given.
Allow me to highlight some of the more importantmatters relating to the financial condition of the arch-diocese, and some of the challenges that still remain.The archdiocese, its many ministries and related entitiesand agencies are financially sound, as evidenced by theaccompanying report.
Notwithstanding ongoing economic challenges, do-nations to the Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal reflected amodest increase in 2012 from 2011. Likewise, rebates tothose parishes that surpassed their respective goal alsoincreased in 2012.
The faithful of the archdiocese also contributed inmany other positive ways, primarily through increasingdonations to Catholic Charities and various relief effortsthroughout the world. During fiscal 2012 alone, morethan $1.8 million was raised for special collections forthe universal Church. Finally, total offertory donationsfor the 142 parishes locations throughout northern Col-orado increased for the second year in a row.
Both St. John Vianney Theological Seminary and Re-demptoris Mater Archdiocesan Missionary Seminarycontinue to prosper. Eleven men were ordained to thepriesthood in 2012.Total enrollment at the seminaries is126 men in August 2012 as compared to 124 in August2011.The New Harvest Campaign, which is being con-ducted by The Catholic Foundation of Northern Col-orado for the benefit of the seminaries, is going well. In
November 2012, The Foundation andthe seminaries achieved the goal of$35.0 million in pledges, of which $7million has been collected. It is obvi-ous the people of the archdiocese val-ue the formation of our future priests!
The ministry initiatives of the arch-diocese, including those services pro-vided by Catholic Charities and Cen-tro San Juan Diego; and the educationof our youth and young adults through the 37parochial schools, two high schools and the
campus ministry programs at area colleges and univer-sities, continue to grow and prosper. Bishop James D.Conley, now bishop of the Diocese of Lincoln, Neb., andI were honored to dedicate several new ministry facili-ties in just the past five months, including a new homefor the participants of Christ in the City ministry near theCathedral Basilica of the Immaculate Conception; twonew parish church facilities in Longmont and Silver-thorne; the Augustine Institute’s new headquarters inGreenwood Village, the fourth Gabriel House in Lake-wood, which serves women and children in need; andProject Lighthouse, an outreach center for pregnantwomen across the street from one of the nation’s largestPlanned Parenthood centers, near the former Stapletonairport. Clearly, the Church is alive in the archdiocese!
There are also areas of our Church life that call for con-tinued improvement. The most notable challenge that weface involves the future of our beloved and historic CampSt. Malo Retreat and Conference Center in Allenspark,which was substantially destroyed by a fire in November2011. My staff continues to resolve various issues whichwill impact Camp St. Malo’s future. Recently, the board ofdirectors of Camp St. Malo hired an independent consult-ant to conduct a survey of the priests, religious, former at-tendees, school principals, parish religious education andyouth directors and many other interested parties to ob-tain their feedback and reflections on Camp St. Malo.We
are considering several possibilities for the next retreatcenter of the archdiocese, in order to best serve the needsof our Church; rest assured that the St. Catherine of SienaChapel, commonly referred to as the “Chapel on theRock,” will always remain a part of the archdiocese.
In view of the complex financial challenges we face asa country and globally, we have been trully blessed thispast fiscal year. I am thankful to the Archdiocesan Fi-
nance Council and its subcommittees for as-sisting me in the administration of the archdio-cese as well as the board members of our vari-ous related entities and agencies. I am veryproud of the archdiocese’s careful manage-ment of its resources. I realize that nothingcould be accomplished without the generousgift of time, talent and treasure from so manypeople throughout the archdiocese. I also wantto thank the employees of the archdiocese and
those of the parishes within the archdiocese. Withoutyour dedication and sacrifices during these past 18months of transition, all of these accomplishmentswould not have been realized.
Finally, I would like to recognize the leadership ofBishop Conley, who performed so faithfully as the apos-tolic administrator of the archdiocese prior to my arrival.As you know, the archdiocese lost a tremendous andgifted spiritual leader, and a friend, with Bishop Conley’sinstallation as the ninth bishop of the Diocese of Lincolnon Nov. 20.While our loss is great, we are comforted inknowing that the Church in southern Nebraska gained agreat leader as their new shepherd.
I am honored to serve as your archbishop. In the com-ing year I will begin to make pastoral visits to all theparishes of northern Colorado. I am eager to spend timewith each pastor and his staff to better understand theircommunities, and the opportunities and challengesthey face. I look forward to meeting the many wonderfulparishioners of this archdiocese in my travels and cele-brating Mass with many of you.
Asking God’s blessing upon you, your families and allyou hold dear as we celebrate Advent, I am
Gratefully yours in Christ,
Most Rev. Samuel J. Aquila, S.T.L.Archbishop of Denver

The members of the Finance Council and its subcommittees are as follows:
Canon law requires every diocese to have a FinanceCouncil (the council) to advise the archbishop. In theArchdiocese of Denver, the Archdiocesan FinanceCouncil (AFC) functions in accordance with writtenstatutes to advise Archbishop Samuel J. Aquila.
The AFC provides policy guidance for the work of sub-committees. Currently, 15 individuals serve on the AFC, in-cluding 14 lay people. In addition, 22 lay, clergy and reli-gious leaders serve on its various subcommittees. The AFCmeets at least quarterly and functions as an advisory boardto the archbishop. Its duties include reviewing the finan-cial and operational performance of the archdiocese andall public juridic persons established by canon law and the
archbishop. Such review is conducted through a series ofreports submitted by the committees that are intended toadvise the archbishop on significant financial matters.
Council members represent a broad cross section ofCatholic business executives from small, medium, andlarge-sized companies of northern Colorado. Profes-sionals practicing in the fields of law, accounting, invest-ment and real estate management are also members.Most serve or have served on their respective parishcouncils, Catholic agencies or other nonprofit boards ofdirectors. The archdiocese also has a governing body ofpriests, which serves as the archbishop’s College of Con-sultors,which also provides advice and guidance on the
finances of the archdiocese. The work of the five sub-committees of the AFC is an important element in de-veloping and fine-tuning the strategy used to addressthe various resource issues confronting the archdiocese.Each committee chairperson is a member of the AFCand provides quarterly updates on their respective com-mittee’s activities to the council.
While these five subcommittees are the primary advi-sory bodies to the AFC, the work and service provided bythe members of the Irrevocable Revolving Fund TrustManagement Committee, the Building Committee, theHealth and Welfare Benefits Trust Committee, thePriest Retirement Committeeand theLay Pension PlanCommittee are also integral to the ongoing stewardshipefforts of the archdiocese.
ARCHDIOCESAN FINANCE COUNCIL AND ITS SUBCOMMITTEES
B2 l 2012 F INANCIAL REPORT DECEMBER 12, 2012 l DENVER CATHOLIC REGISTER
The Archdiocese of Denver (the archdioceseand/or the chancery), is a Colorado nonprofit cor-poration sole, located on the campus of the JohnPaul II Center in south Denver. The chancery is com-posed of the offices of the archbishop, the vicars, di-rectors and others who collaborate in the adminis-tration and oversight of over 30 archdiocesan officesand ministry programs.
The Archbishop’s Catholic Appeal campaign’s fiscal2012 donations increased by $516,000 or 7.1 percent ascompared to fiscal 2011. While parish assessments in-creased modestly from an overall increase in parish of-fertories, grants and contributions declined by ap-proximately $491,000, reflecting the non-recurrence ofnumerous one-time grants recognized in 2011. Invest-ment income decreased by almost $1.9 million in 2012from 2011 due to the decline in the performance ofstock markets during fiscal 2012.
Generally, program expenses in fiscal 2012 de-clined from comparable balances in fiscal 2011 dueto ongoing stewardship and cost containment ef-forts. Gifts and grants expense decreased $1.2 mil-lion due to non-recurrence of funding needed fortechnology upgrades at the Management Corpora-tion in 2011 and a decline in grant funding of certainparish schools.
Cash and short-term investments increased pri-marily due to the reclassification of a $2.8 millioncertificate of deposit from long-term investments toa cash equivalent during fiscal 2012 due to its short-term nature. The decrease in notes, contributionsand accounts receivable as reflected in the State-ment of Financial Position of almost $1.5 million isdue to the refinancing of two parish notes, payableto a financial institution, through the RevolvingFund Trust as well as the pay-off of one parish note
with an independent bank. Notes and bondspayable also declined in a similar amount as thearchdiocese was a co-borrower on the parish obliga-tions to the outside financial institution.

Contributions to special collections provide funds for Catholic Relief Services, Holy Land, Peter’sPence, Catholic University of America, Catholic Communications Campaign, Church in Latin America,Church in Central and Eastern Europe, Propagation of the Faith, Catholic Campaign for Human Devel-opment and Religious Retirement and many other worthwhile organizations. The increase in specialcollections in fiscal 2012, as compared to fiscal 2011, is due to the ongoing generosity of the faithful ofnorthern Colorado. Included in the fiscal 2011 totals for international collections is approximately$108,000 for tsunami relief in Japan.
Such contributions are not reflected in the Statement of Activities for the archdiocese as, when thesefunds are collected, they are held in trust for the ultimate benefactor and distributed to such entities.The archdiocese does withhold a modest administrative fee from these special collections before remit-ting such funds to the respective entity or agency within the Church. Such fees cover banking fees andother processing costs and were approximately 5% of total special collections.

Redemptoris Mater House of Formation (Redemp-toris Mater), a Colorado nonprofit corporation, was es-tablished in 1996 by the archdiocese as an archdiocesanmissionary seminary. Redemptoris Mater prepares menfor the priesthood who come from all over the worldready to serve the Catholic Church, according to the di-rection of “Presbyterorum Ordinis” No. 10. Most of thepriests being formed in Redemptoris Mater are to bearchdiocesan priests for the archdiocese and according-ly, the archbishop decides their assignments. Given theuniversal missionary purpose of the Catholic Church,candidates from all over the world help to create anopen environment without discrimination of language,culture or race. Presently, there are 30 men (22 menstudying for the archdiocese, six men studying for theDiocese of Dallas and two men studying for the Dioceseof Pueblo) at Redemptoris Mater. In fiscal 2012, Re-demptoris Mater ordained two men to the priesthood,who now serve within the archdiocese.
Since 1996, 18 Redemptoris Mater seminarians havebeen ordained as priests of the Archdiocese.
St. John Vianney Theological Seminary (St. JohnVianney) is a Colorado nonprofit corporation thatwas established in 1999 to provide seminary forma-tion and other programs for the education of semi-narians, permanent deacons and members of thelaity. In addition to the seminary, St. John Vianneyoperates the Cardinal Stafford Theological Library,the St. Francis School of Theology for Deacons andthe Division of Lay Formation, including theCatholic Biblical School and Catechetical School forthe education of the laity.
Eleven men were ordained priests in fiscal 2012,four of whom serve within the territory of the arch-diocese. Presently, there are 36 men at St. John Vian-ney and, when combined with 22 men from Re-demptoris Mater and 68 men from other dioceses orreligious orders, the total enrollment at St. JohnVianney is 126.
The recurring operations of St. John Vianney Sem-inary for both fiscal 2012 and 2011 were supportedby contributions from the general public, includinga share of proceeds from the annual parish seminaryappeal, grants from the archdiocese made possiblethrough the annual Archbishop’s Catholic Appealcampaign, Mount Olivet Cemetery, the Archdioceseof Denver Mortuary at Mount Olivet, and from vari-ous restricted endowments owned by The CatholicFoundation for the Roman Catholic Church inNorthern Colorado (The Foundation), including ini-tial distributions from the “New Harvest Campaign.”In conjunction with the New Harvest Campaign, TheFoundation established and owns the New HarvestCampaign’s two endowments, one for future capitalrenovation projects and one for an operating en-
dowment for providing long-term sustainability tothe seminaries. Accordingly, the endowments andtheir related activity (pledges, cash payments andrelated contribution revenues) are not recorded inthe financial statements of either St. John Vianney orRedemptoris Mater Seminaries. Instead, grant dis-tributions from the endowments are recorded asGrants & Contributions when received.
In 2012, tuition income increased due to increas-ing enrollment of seminarians from other dioceses
attending St. John Vianney. In-kind contributionswere also received from the chancery for variousservices and overhead costs at the John Paul II Cen-ter. Overall, the decrease in net assets of $131,179declined from the prior year due to increases infundraising and tuition revenues along with a reduc-tion in costs, primarily the non-recurrence of certaingrant expenditures for construction improvements.

GRANT AND OTHER FUNDING TO CATHOLIC SCHOOLS AND EDUCATION MINISTRY PROGRAMSThe Archdiocese of Denver Catholic Schools com-
prises the largest private school system in Colorado.Located in 18 cities in northern Colorado, 37 parishschools and two high schools educated 9,616 stu-dents during the school year ended in June 2012. Themajority of Catholic school revenue comes from thesacrifice families make to pay tuition, and while thisis a generous investment, it is not sufficient to coverthe salaries and related benefit costs of faculty andstaff. Accordingly, these schools also rely on fundrais-ing, parish support and philanthropy to survive fi-nancially. In contrast, the majority of revenue for
public schools comes from taxpayers, whether theyare users of the services or not. For the 2011-2012school year, Catholic schools and related education-al ministry programs of the archdiocese receivedmore than $5.9 million in grants and other supportthrough The Catholic School Assistance Fund (CSAF)into which each parish contributes, The Seeds ofHope Charitable Trust, The Catholic Foundation, andthe Archdiocese of Denver (through the Archbishop’sCatholic Appeal). The financial help of each of theseentities allows Catholic education to be made avail-able to as many families as possible.
Based on the teachings of Jesus Christ, Holy FamilyHigh School Inc. (HFHS) seeks to provide a Catholiclearning environment that stresses academic excel-lence, fosters mutual respect, demands responsibilityand encourages self-growth. Nearly 5,000 men andwomen have benefited from their HFHS experience,sharing with their families, communities and beyond,the faith, values and learning developed by theirCatholic education. HFHS is a Colorado nonprofit cor-poration established in 1999 and is located in Broom-field. HFHS is celebrating 90 years of excellence in ed-ucation and continues the tradition of a family of faithinvesting in the future of our young people and ourChurch.
For the school year ending June 2012, HFHS gradu-ated 142 seniors, who received $16.0 million in merit-based scholarships to attend colleges and universitiesthroughout the United States. For the current schoolyear that began in August of 2012, HFHS is near its ca-pacity, educating over 600 students.
HFHS’s loss from operations was $578,787 in fiscal2012 compared to $638,493 in fiscal 2011. Average en-rollment for the 2011/2012 school year of 570 studentswas more than the 558 students for the 2010/2011school year, resulting in an increase of $218,972 in op-erating revenue in fiscal 2012.
Operating expenses were $159,266 higher in fiscal2012 compared to fiscal 2011 due to higher personnelcosts in fiscal 2012. The fiscal 2012 and 2011 lossesfrom operation include depreciation totaling $591,210and $598,525, respectively.
During 2012, HFHS concluded the “A Growing Tra-dition” capital campaign that began in 2006 andraised, on a cumulative basis, nearly $1.0 million forvarious restricted purposes. One of these projects
was to finish the landscape of the track and footballfields, and through the generosity of a group ofdonors and funds from the capital campaign, a con-cession stand was built to serve the school’s loyalfootball, baseball, track and cross country fans.

Bishop Machebeuf High School Inc. (BMHS) is aCatholic college preparatory high school that is commit-ted to integrating faith formation and supporting a di-verse, college-bound community. BMHS is a Coloradononprofit corporation, established in 1999, located inthe Lowry neighborhood of east Denver. BMHS was ini-tially founded in 1958 as a coeducational Catholicschool for students in grades nine through 12. BMHS’svision is to be a dynamic educational community en-veloped in the rich tradition of the Catholic Church andthe Gospels of Jesus Christ. BMHS is recognized for itscommitment to faith, academic excellence, ethnic vari-ety and service to others.
BMHS takes great pride in being the only Catholichigh school in Colorado to be recognized in 2006, 2007,2008 and 2012 as one of the Top 50 Catholic HighSchools in the United States by the Cardinal NewmanSociety (formerly the Acton Institute). Students whosucceed at BMHS are those who live their faith and striveto make a difference, both as individual Catholic citizensand as members of this academic community of faith.For the school year ending June 30, 2012, BMHS gradu-ated 72 seniors who were awarded merit-based scholar-ships totaling $5.8 million.
During fiscal 2012, BMHS celebrated the remarkableaccomplishment that 100 percent of its graduating sen-ior class gained admission to colleges and universitiesnationwide for the second year in a row. For the currentschool year, which began in August 2012, BMHS is edu-cating 361 students.
BMHS’s loss from operations totaled $594,420 for fis-cal 2012. Actual enrollment for the fiscal 2012 schoolyear ended at 358 students. For fiscal 2011, the operatingloss totaled $412,055 and actual enrollment was 366 stu-dents. The increase in operating loss in fiscal 2012 is pri-
marily due to an increase in operating expenses as a re-sult of higher personnel costs; unexpected repair andmaintenance costs; and a decrease in operating revenuedue to the necessity for increased financial aid andscholarships.
The loss from operations at BMHS includes depre-ciation expense totaling $426,789 in 2012 and$390,245 in 2011. Excluding depreciation expense,BMHS has generated cash from operations for three
consecutive years. Such accomplishments would notbe possible without the generous donations and phil-anthropic support for financial aid that BMHS has re-ceived over the years.
During 2012, BMHS concluded its “Building on a Tra-dition of Excellence” capital campaign that began in2008 and raised, on a cumulative basis, more than $2.2million for restricted purposes.

HOLY FAMILY HIGH SCHOOL INC.
BISHOP MACHEBEUF HIGH SCHOOL INC.
2012 F INANCIAL REPORT l B5DENVER CATHOLIC REGISTER l DECEMBER 12, 2012
The mission of the Seeds of Hope Charitable Trust(Seeds of Hope) is to make the tremendous benefits of aCatholic education available to economically disadvan-taged children of all faiths. Since its inception in 1996,Seeds of Hope has assisted nearly 14,000 students withmore than $23.0 million in assistance. The studentsserved have grown into successful high school students,college graduates, and flourishing members of the sur-rounding communities.
Through its tuition assistance programs, Seeds ofHope supports the Catholic elementary and highschools that serve low-income, high-risk populations.While Seeds of Hope focuses on five Schools in UrbanNeighborhoods (S.U.N.) and seven Focus schools, dur-ing the 2011-2012 school year, assistance was providedto students in 27 parish schools in northern Colorado.During the year ended June 30, 2012, Seeds of Hope pro-vided approximately $1.4 million of assistance to morethan 940 students.
In fiscal 2012, Seeds of Hope’s net assets decreased by$452,663 as compared to an increase in net assets of$1,486,750 in fiscal 2011. This change is primarily attrib-utable to investment returns between the two years. Inaddition, Seeds of Hope received a $400,000 grant in fis-cal 2011 from the Daniels Fund to be paid over fouryears. Such grant was recognized, in its entirety for fi-nancial reporting purposes, in fiscal 2011.
While Seeds of Hope is fortunate to maintain variousendowment funds totaling more than $7.3 million as ofJune 30, 2012, the annual spending restrictions of suchendowments limit the amount of grant awards that canbe made in any given year. Accordingly, ongoingfundraising efforts and donations are essential to pro-vide much needed tuition assistance.

MORTUARY AND CEMETERIES
The Archdiocese of Denver Mortuary (the mortuary),located on the grounds of Mount Olivet Cemetery, is aColorado nonprofit corporation committed to servingthe Church as a symbol of the community of faith unbro-ken by death. The mortuary began offering funeral serv-ices in 1981 to the Catholic community of northern Col-orado. It was established by the archdiocese to ensurethat proper dignity would be provided to the beloveddead and their grieving families. Additionally, the mortu-ary was established to offer funeral services at affordablecosts to the Catholic community, especially the poor.
During fiscal 2012 and 2011, the mortuary providedfuneral services to 590 and 602 families, respectively. In-cluded in these numbers are services to the County So-cial Services offices for 106 cases in 2012 and 102 casesin 2011. Accordingly, the mortuary contributed morethan $322,000 in care services to the poor and their fam-ilies in 2012.
Income from operations during fiscal 2012 of$156,547 combined with investment income of $99,063resulted in a modest increase in net assets. Overall, theincrease in net assets of $255,610 in fiscal 2012 wasdown from the comparable amount in 2011 due to thedecline in the number of funeral services and in invest-ment returns in 2012.
The mortuary’s board continued its long-standing tra-
dition of funding other ministry programs in the arch-diocese when it approved respective grants of $31,000and $69,000 to St. John Vianney and Redemptoris Materseminaries in fiscal 2012 as compared to respectivegrants of $55,400 and $144,600 in fiscal 2011.

SEEDS OF HOPE CHARITABLE TRUST
Mount Olivet Cemetery Association (Mount Olivet)is a Colorado nonprofit corporation and is located inWheat Ridge. It was consecrated in 1891. By buryingthe dead and comforting the bereaved, the staff ofMount Olivet teaches the faithful to look beyondearthly existence and thereby deepen faith in eternalsalvation and life everlasting in the Lord.
During fiscal 2012 and 2011, Mount Olivet providedburial services to 1,623 and 1,581 families, respective-ly. Total cemetery sales revenue in fiscal 2012 reflecteda decrease of 14.2 percent from fiscal 2011 due to therecognition in fiscal 2011 of revenues of crypts andniches for the newly opened St. Francis of Assisi Mau-soleum. Approximately $830,000 of the new mau-soleum’s revenues recognized in fiscal 2011 reflectedsales that originated in 2010 but were deferred untilthe mausoleum opened. Included in the funeral serv-ices data above are services to the County Social Serv-ices offices for 372 cases in 2012 and 384 cases in 2011.Accordingly, Mount Olivet contributed more than$675,500 in care services to the poor and their familiesin fiscal 2012.
The decline in investment returns in fiscal 2012 wasa primary reason for the significant fluctuation in theincrease in net assets during fiscal 2011 as comparedto 2012. However, the contribution realized from the
forgiveness of debt by the Perpetual Care Trust (seeCemeteries Perpetual Care Trust) more than offset thedecline in investment results.
Mount Olivet’s board continued its long-standingtradition of funding other ministry programs in the
archdiocese when it approved respective grants of$157,000 and $343,000 to St. John Vianney and Re-demptoris Mater seminaries in fiscal 2012 as com-pared to respective grants of $139,000 and $361,000 infiscal 2011.

St. Simeon Cemetery (St. Simeon), located in Aurora,is a Colorado nonprofit corporation that was establishedin 2000. St. Simeon provided burial services to 91 fami-lies in both fiscal 2012 and 2011. Of these burial services,
Social Service cases totaled 60 and 59 in fiscal 2012 andfiscal 2011 respectively. In essence, St. Simeon con-tributed more than $189,000 in care services to the poorand their families in 2012.
The Board of Directors of St. Simeon and managementhave anticipated that the financial results of St. Simeonwill generate operating losses until St. Simeon’s advertis-ing and referral efforts increase interest in the cemetery.This year’s operating loss reflects a $50,000 increase fromthe prior year. Careful monitoring of operating costs con-tinues to be a priority of management of St. Simeon.

CEMETERIES PERPETUAL CARE TRUSTThe Perpetual Care Trust (the Trust) funds are dedi-
cated in perpetuity for the ongoing maintenance ofthe beautiful pastoral setting that characterizes bothMount Olivet and St. Simeon Cemeteries. The ceme-teries may set aside a pre-determined percentage ofthe gross sales price of each grave and crypt sold andinvest such funds in a Trust. During the years endedJune 30, 2012, and 2011, the cemeteries did not con-tribute to the Perpetual Care Trust based on Manage-ment’s analysis of the adequacy of such funding.
In accordance with the purpose of the Trust, the Trustfunded various renovation costs of $166,683 at bothMount Olivet and St. Simeon Cemeteries in 2012 ascompared to $137,055 in fiscal 2011. In addition, duringfiscal 2010 and 2011, the Trust provided financing toMount Olivet Cemetery to fund the construction of theSt. Francis of Assisi Mausoleum. After careful considera-tion, the Trustees elected to forgive the balance due on
the note obligation of $2.2 million in December 2011.This contribution has been reflected as Gifts and Grantsin the Trust’s financial statements in fiscal 2012.

JOHN PAUL II CENTER FOR THE NEW EVANGELIZATION
The Archdiocese of Denver Risk Management andProperty/Casualty Insurance Trust (the Risk Man-agement Trust) strives to protect parishes and otherparticipating ecclesiastical entities within the terri-tory of the archdiocese from catastrophic financialloss. Prevention and other cost-containment meas-ures are stressed to minimize risk and control plancosts. Archdiocesan entities and parishes within theterritory of the archdiocese pay premiums to theRisk Management Trust.
The Risk Management Trust is partially self-fund-ed and bears the financial loss on claims up to cer-tain limitations of acceptable risk. Traditional in-demnity insurance policies cover losses exceedingthe fund’s risk limitations. The staff of the Risk Man-agement Trust coordinates safety, compliance withenvironmental law and risk-awareness programs forparishes, schools and other participating organiza-tions within the territory of the archdiocese. Duringfiscal 2012, the Risk Management Trust processed138 workman’s compensation claims, valued at $1.0million and 120 property and casualty insuranceclaims totaling $1.1 million (excluding Camp St. Ma-lo). During fiscal 2011, 119 workman’s compensa-tion claims totaling $387,500 and 98 property andcasualty claims totaling $703,000 were processed.
The Risk Management Trust significantly in-
creased its net assets by $1.4 million during fiscal2012. This improvement is attributable to a decrease
in litigation costs related to claims. Additionally, theRisk Management Trust realized favorable claims ex-perience related to its self-funded claims under theproperty and workers’ compensation insurance pro-grams.

Camp St. Malo Retreat Center (the Center) is lo-cated on 160 acres at the base of Mount Meeker, sur-rounded by the Roosevelt National Forest and RockyMountain National Park.
Sadly, a significant fire occurred at the Center onNov. 14, 2011. Gratefully, no one was injured duringthe fire, the memorabilia from the Camp St. Maloyouth camp days and Pope John Paul II’s visit to theCenter in 1993 were saved, and the Blessed Sacra-ment was safely reposed. However, significant por-tions of the retreat and conference facilities, includ-ing the conference center, dining room and kitchen,related equipment, records and other assets weredestroyed. While the historic St. Catherine chapel lo-cated on the grounds of Camp St. Malo was not im-pacted by the fire, the guest lodging units were dam-aged extensively but were determined to not be a to-tal loss at this time. The effects of the fire have madethe Center inoperable and have been devastating tothe ministry of St. Malo, the CLM/SCV communityand the former St. Malo employees.
Since November 2011, St. Malo has been closedand will remain so for an indefinite period of time.Management of St. Malo, with the assistance of theManagement Corporation, is handling variousproperty issues and is evaluating options as to thebest utilization of the property going forward, in-cluding the propriety of rebuilding a new retreat andconference center facility and repairing the guestlodging at the existing site or, rebuilding elsewhere.In October 2012, the board of directors of Camp St.Malo hired an independent consultant to conduct asurvey of the priests, religious, former customers,and many other interested parties to obtain theirfeedback and reflections on Camp St. Malo.
During fiscal 2012, Camp St. Malo recorded a lossof $2,108,759 representing the impairment in valueto the property and equipment impacted by the fire.
In addition, Camp St. Malo incurred other costs re-lated to securing the property, clean-up efforts andother related costs. Such costs totaled $93,740 dur-ing fiscal 2012 and were expensed. While manage-ment anticipates reimbursement of some of thesecosts from insurance proceeds, no receivable hasbeen recorded for such claims as of June 30, 2012.Certain clean-up costs incurred at the facility in fis-cal 2012 were approved and paid directly by the in-surance carriers.
Camp St. Malo maintains a comprehensive prop-erty and general liability insurance coverage withloss limits management believes will provide sub-stantial and broad coverage for the losses from thefire. Management continues working with its insur-ance carrier and third party consultants to deter-mine the extent of the losses at this time.
While significant losses have been recognized
during fiscal 2012, management anticipates signifi-cant insurance recoveries may be recorded duringthe fiscal year ending June 30, 2013, once a final set-tlement with the insurance carriers is determined.However, for financial reporting purposes, such re-coveries will not be recorded until they are realizedfrom the insurance carriers.
From 2003 to 2011, the Center was operated by theChristian Life Movement (CLM) and the SodalitiumChristianae Vitae (SCV), a society of apostolic life. Asa result of the fire, the lease and operating agree-ments with CLM and SCV were terminated in Janu-ary 2012. The archdiocese is now exploring otherministry options for the CLM/SCV community.

The Archdiocese of Denver Welfare Benefits Trust(Welfare Benefits Trust) provides access to qualityhealth care to approximately 1,731 archdiocesan,parish and related ecclesiastical entities’ employeesalong with the Diocese of Colorado Springs (the dio-cese) and the employees of its parishes and relatedecclesiastical entities. Those entities and parisheswithin the territories of the archdiocese and the dio-cese pay premiums to the Welfare Benefits Trust. TheWelfare Benefits Trust is partially self-insured andbears the financial losses on insurance claims up tocertain limitations of acceptable risk. Traditional in-demnity insurance products cover losses exceedingthe fund’s risk limitations.
The Health Care Advisory Committee (the com-mittee) of the Trust, comprised of parish representa-tives and staff from both the archdiocese and thediocese, continually evaluates the financial per-formance of the Welfare Benefits Trust, and is sensi-tive to the impact of rising medical rates on the var-ious participating employers and their employees.While the committee is pleased with the adequacy ofthe trust’s cash and investment reserves as of June30, 2012, it continues to focus on improving com-munications to the employee participants and pre-serving current participant benefit levels.
For fiscal 2011 and 2012, the respective increase inour medical and prescription premiums were 0 per-cent and 2.0 percent, respectively. For the currentfiscal year 2013, the increase in the medical pre-scription premium for the employers and employeesof the Welfare Benefits Trust was 0 percent. Theserate increases compare very favorably to other Col-orado employees’ healthcare plans, which experi-enced average increases of 14.4 percent, 9.4 percentand 7.4 percent in 2011, 2012 and 2013. The adviso-ry committee has been able to limit such increases,as compared to other employers, based solely on theadequacy of the trust’s existing cash and investmentreserves and the favorable rates it has negotiatedwith its provider network. During this same time pe-riod, the Welfare Benefits Trust has been able tomaintain all of its current coverage levels for medicalbenefits.
The Welfare Benefits Trust’s net assets increasedby $761,767 in fiscal 2012, which is primarily attrib-utable to favorable claims experience. During fiscal
2012, the committee engaged a specialist to conducta claims’ audit for the health care plans of the arch-diocese and diocese. The primary purpose of thisaudit was to ensure the integrity of the claimsprocessed by Trust’s claims’ processors. The com-mittee is pleased to report that the results of theclaims’ audit were positive and the independent au-ditors found minimal overpayment errors to med-ical providers.

The various benefit plans (e.g. medical, dental and other)sponsored, operated and maintained under the WelfareBenefits Trust are self-funded church medical benefitsplans that are currently “grandfathered plans” under thePatient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA),which was signed into law by the President on March 23,2010. Accordingly, these plans are currently not subjectto certain requirements of the PPACA, and are exemptfrom the regulations promulgated by the United StatesDepartment of Health and Human Services regardingmandatory provision of contraceptive services in thespring of 2012. Maintaining grandfathered status is a pri-ority of the Plan administrator, although there is no as-surance that can be achieved over time.
