In THE MANY NAMES OF RMS, Anonymous asked further questions about how much RMS actually cost to run. Coincidentally, I found the answer soon after Anonymous asked the question.
The question was answered by the RMS Board of Directors on Oct. 11, 2016, in their response to the Visitation Report of RMS of Sep. 12, 2016:
"Subsidy from the Archdiocese to the RMS and the Theological Institute has been an average of only 5% of the total budget."
Given that the average subsidy from the Archdiocese was $105,543 per year and accounted for only 5% of the budget, the annual budget to run RMS was $2,110,086. RMS ran for 17 years.
The cost: $35,871,472.
THIRTY FIVE "meeeellions and meeeeellions." !!!
And how many priests did that give us?
golden priests, follow the money, who paid all this money?
