The Department of Administration exists to serve parishes of the Archdiocese of San Antonio. It’s purpose is to assist the archbishop in shepherding them by providing administrative, managerial and financial support toward realization of our common vision as a local church. The department is the focal point for most insurance, personnel, tax, legal, and property management issues. Most of these issues are addressed in the Business Management Handbook. The resources of the faithful, generously shared with the archdiocese, are a sacred trust. The department strives to ensure that they are faithfully and correctly applied to the needs of the church.
