Per Archdiocesan policies, all parish volunteers must participate in Virtus Training. This includes: ushers, mass coordinators, choir, lectors, Eucharistic ministers – basically, any volunteer regardless if they are working with adults OR children.
For those working or interacting with children in any capacity they will also need to sign the Guidelines for Adults Interacting with Minors Form each year of service, and complete the Live Scan fingerprinting process. These records will be kept in the parish office upon completion.
If you have not yet been trained, or if your training has expired, you will not able to volunteer until you attend a new training. If you attend training at a different location you must send in a copy of your certificate to the parish office.
