Our Stewardship
Introduction to our Mission’s Financial Statement The following is a report to you on how we have stewarded your precious resources during the previous year. It is an honor to do this. Each year the Central Association of the Miraculous Medal has an audit done by an outside, independent auditing firm – Zelenkofske Axelrod, LLC. This audit demonstrates that we do what you expect us to do and with the utmost cost savings.
Our mission first and foremost is to promote prayer and devotion to Mary Immaculate under the title of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal; to support the retired priests, brothers and seminarians of St. Vincent de Paul’s community, the Congregation of the Mission (Vincentians); and to help them in their work with the poor of St. Vincent de Paul. Thank you for your great support and generosity.
