Here at St. Malachy, the safety of our parishioners is a great priority. In order to partake in any parish activities involving the youth, elderly, or disabled members of our church, volunteers and employees must take the proper steps.
The Protecting God’s Children program implements safety mechanisms that send a message to all abusers and potential abusers. By utilizing the best practices for training and loss prevention, this program helps make churches safe for all people—especially children.
We are asking for all volunteers and staff members of St. Malachy to be compliant in completing the Protecting God’s Children course and filling out the proper paperwork.
