When men from around the Diocese gather for the annual Catholic Men for Jesus Christ Rally this year, it won’t be for just a day, but an entire weekend.

This year, because of the pandemic restrictions, the rally will not be held in-person but virtually from Feb. 19-21. Highlights of the event, according to organizers, include more than 50 speakers, many of whom are nationally and internationally known, who will address topics including “The Idolatry of Sports;” “Leaving Boyhood Behind: Rights of Passage and the Crisis of Maturity,” and “Your God Is Too Boring.”

Participants will also have an opportunity to attend a virtual pre-recorded Mass celebrated by Bishop David M. O’Connell, C.M.

Each year, the Diocese of Trenton undergoes an audit of its financial statements by an independent public accounting firm. 

For fiscal year 2020, the Diocese of Trenton reported a decrease in total net assets of $0.6 million, compared to a decrease of $11.8 million in fiscal year 2019. The net decrease in fiscal year 2020 was due primarily to the impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on operations.  The net decrease in fiscal year 2019 included approximately $10.9 million from increased insurance program expenses, most of which relate to potential costs for misconduct cases, compared to a decrease in insurance program expenses of approximately $9.0 million in fiscal year 2020.
