Friends in Christ, the financial information presented here for the Roman Catholic Diocese of Nashville highlights the stewardship and generosity that sustains our mission and ministries. Your contributions, prayers, and dedication enable us to build a vibrant Church that serves the faithful and those most in need.

The Diocese of Nashville is committed to the highest standards of fiscal integrity. Our financial statements are audited annually by Puryear and Noonan, an independent accounting firm. Once again, this year we received a clean audit opinion, continuing our record of excellence. This professional audit reflects our dedication to transparency, accountability, and earning the trust of our community. Full audited financial statements are available here.

The Fiscal Services Office has the responsibility of supporting the bishop with stewardship of temporal resources needed to carry out the mission of the diocese, and fulfills this responsibility by seeing that the resources of the chancery, parishes, schools, and diocesan-affiliated entities are administered in a prudent manner in accordance with canon and civil law. The Fiscal Services Office also provides regular and ongoing onsite audits and evaluations of the financial practices of parishes and schools to ensure assets are properly safeguarded with proper internal controls in place and are in compliance with diocesan financial policies.
