What st Albert the great does

St. Albert the Great Catholic Parish is a Roman Catholic parish and 501(c)-equivalent non-profit religious organization founded in 1959, operating under the spiritual authority of the Archdiocese of Louisville. It is headquartered at 1395 Girard Drive in the East End of Louisville, KY (off Westport Road), serving more than 4,500 parishioners through worship, sacraments, lifelong faith formation, charitable outreach, and community events including an annual Fish Fry and Summer Picnic. The parish also operates St. Albert the Great School, a wholly-owned K-8 Catholic school, as a core operating subsidiary.

The parish's "product surface" is a portfolio of ministry services: daily and weekend Mass, the sacraments (Reconciliation, Baptism, Marriage, Anointing of the Sick), sacramental preparation, OCIA (Order of Christian Initiation for Adults), Children's, Youth, and Adult Formation, pastoral care for the sick and homebound, and Social Concerns/charitable programs. Underlying technology consists of a Wix-hosted website, live-streamed Mass on YouTube, archived homilies on Podbean, a parish-wide Formed.org subscription for Catholic content, Google Calendar for scheduling, and an online store. Online stewardship is enabled through Vanco Payments (myvanco.com), the Give+ mobile app, and text-to-give (877-254-4667), with support for one-time, recurring, stock, and 401(k) required minimum distribution donations.

The revenue model is non-commercial and stewardship-driven, with no fees for worship services. Income streams include voluntary tithes and offerings from parishioners, planned giving and bequests (charitable trusts, retirement plan and life insurance beneficiary designations, gifts of property/real estate), stock donations, 401(k) RMD gifts, parish school tuition, and proceeds from annual fundraisers. The parish is governed by a Pastor (Fr. Chris Lubecke), an Associate Pastor, a Deacon, a Business Manager, and directors across Religious Education, Music & Worship, Stewardship & Communications, and Children's Ministry, alongside a Parish Pastoral Council (PPC) and Finance Council. There is no private equity, venture capital, or external shareholder ownership; the organization is a mission-driven faith community under Archdiocesan oversight.
