VSB Partners with Archdiocese of New York
The Center for Church Management and Business Ethics at the Villanova School of Business has partnered with the Archdiocese of New York to create a new program for the parishes of the Archdiocese as part of the Master of Science in Church Management program. Under this new partnership, the ADNY will enroll up to 50 parishioners to the Master of Science in Church Management program annually for two years.
The partnership comes from the Archdiocese of New York recently launched “All Things New” program. The program was created to ensure the parishes will be managed by the most highly qualified business managers. To do this, parishes may consolidate, and the clergy will take on greater pastoral and administrative responsibilities. Some of these administrative responsibilities will need to be delegated to qualified parish business managers.
