How's your diocese doing?

From VirtueOnline:

From the DIOCESE OF PENNSYLVANIA come more details of a diocese in decline. In 2002, voluntary pledges made in support of the Diocesan program budget (Mission and Ministry of the diocese) were $2.440 million. In 2009 the proposed budget is $1.089 million a 124% decrease. Under Mandatory Assessments to support an Episcopate budget, which includes Clergy Financial Assistance and Retired Clergy Medical Assistance the picture is different. In 2002 the amount was $908,000. In 2009 a proposed budget is $1.664 million - an 83% increase.
