One of the best ways you can learn about CSA's ministry of sponsorship is to view this 11-minute clip (click on link above) from Tapestry of Hope, the newly revised DVD used throughout the CSA sponsored ministries for orientation and education of all employees. Meet some of the amazine people who further the healing and teaching ministry of Jesus in their work at Agnesian HealthCare, Marian University, and Monroe Clinic.

SPONSORSHIP STRUCTURE

The terms sponsor and sponsorship are used to describe the relationship of the Congregation of Sisters of St. Agnes to our incorporated ministries. Through sponsorship, CSA creates partnerships that respond to community needs, with special concern for persons who are marginalized. To sponsor, in essence, means to carry on the healing and teaching mission of Jesus in the name of the Catholic Church. The sponsor has canon (church) and civil law responsibilities regarding its sponsored ministries.

To carry out these responsibilities, CSA utilizes the civil law structure of the member corporation with two classes of members:

Class A Members - CSA General Council:

Class A Members maintain ultimate stewardship responsibility for the sponsored ministries and carry out their canonical fiduciary responsibilities by retaining certain reserved powers.

Class B Members - CSA Sponsorship Ministry (CSASM):

CSASM is a unique body composed of lay and vowed religious members who reflect the diversity of the sponsored ministries as well as cultural, gender, and geographic diversity. Class A Members have delegated canonical responsibility for stewardship of mission and resources to Class B Members. CSASM fulfills its responsibilities through strategic planning, the exercise of reserved powers delegated to them by Class A Members, and visioning for the future shape of sponsorship.
