Safe Environment

In order to volunteer for ministries at Blessed Sacrament (ushers, financial volunteers, Parish Pastoral Council, office volunteers, religious education volunteers, choir members, liturgical ministries, etc.), especially with our children or vulnerable adults, you must undergo the Safe Environment Training and a background check through Catholic Mutual Group. This is a mandatory training and a Diocesan standard for the protection of our children. You can find the training and information at:
CMG Safe Environment Training

Please contact the office if you have any questions!
