Guys, Help Me Think This Through πŸ˜…πŸ“š

Hey guys! πŸ‘‹ Quick question for anyone here who’s familiar with Canon Law:

For our midterm, we have to propose a business venture for a congregation/diocese based on Book V of the Code of Canon Law, particularly on the acquisition, administration, and alienation of temporal goods.

Prof was pretty clear that we can’t use AI or copy old submissions πŸ˜… so I’m trying to brainstorm some original but realistic ideas.

Has anyone encountered a practical, ethical business model that a parish, diocese, or religious congregation could actually run while staying within the rules of Canon Law?

Any ideas, references, or even just a direction to explore would be a big help. πŸ™

I am just a lay person, the best people to ask who are also theologian's are the priest or nuns. They would be able to help. As they would have degrees in business management and many other.

Wow! Yep, a theologian’s guidance would be really helpful here.

Couldn't you run a gift store, I know a monastery near me that has a gift shop they run to help fund their needs.
