ELEEMOSYNAE

Eleemosynae (el-uh-mos-uh-nee) is a term used in Ecclesiastical law to refer to possessions that belong to the church.

Examples of eleemosynae include:

• Donations made to the church
• Land or property owned by the church
• Money collected during church services

These examples illustrate how eleemosynae refers to possessions that are owned by the church. Donations made to the church, land or property owned by the church, and money collected during church services are all considered eleemosynae because they are possessions that belong to the church.
