The ecclesiastical foundation aims to enable the Roman Catholic Church to exercise pastoral care in the area of the canonically defined parish of Steinerberg and to enable the Roman Catholic residents of this parish area to fulfill their ecclesiastical-religious duties by making available the parish church, chapel, and ecclesiastical properties, as well as to facilitate this through the corresponding income. It ensures the Roman Catholic cult and contributes, as far as possible, to the maintenance of the ecclesiastical assets made available within the framework of ordinary administration. In particular, the parish foundation, as a benefice, makes its assets and income available to the holder of the church office associated with the foundation. This applies to both personnel and material needs. Specifically, the parish foundation contributes, within the framework of ordinary administration and to the extent of its financial capabilities, to the remuneration of the clergy appointed to the church office or the parish administrator appointed by the diocesan bishop during their term of office. The financing of the material needs of the church office is secured through the patronal obligation of the members of the parish; complete purpose description according to the statutes.
