i don't know, but there should be enough to take proper care of the aging nun population, apparently the church feels God will care for them without any monetary help from the Vatican. Unfortunately for the sisters, god disagrees.

It is impossible to know how much wealth "the Vatican" may have. By your question are you speaking of the wealth that lies within the physical confines of the state of the Vatican, or of the roman Catholic Church as a whole? The wealth of the RC is incalculable in many ways since it includes priceless works of art and science. Needless to say the RC is probably, at least on paper, the wealthiest religion, but much of that wealth is in real estate or, as mentioned, works of art and science with cannot be liquidated.

I dare say, that will never be divulged. I often wondered when a natural disaster happened, why could'nt the church have donated a million dollars to aid the people, instead of saying a big showy public prayer?

immeasurable. Not only does it have money and property, but in its vaults the vatican has the greatest collection of art and historical pieces in the world.

What ever the Vatican has is irrelevant ,compared to how much you are worth to GOD.
