OUR PARISH CHILDREN NEED YOU!!

Dear Catechist’s,

On Aug. 26th, 27th  and 28th we will review special events and family nites. If you are presently a Catechist and have not been fingerprinted or have not had a background check in the last 5 years please go online to www.diocesepalmbeach. Follow the instructions for fingerprinting which is through the office of Protecting God’s Children. It will give you a barcode which you need to bring to the offices of the Diocese of Palm Beach and they will fingerprint you there. Do not go to any other venue for fingerprinting or background checks as the Diocese is the only place this can be done.

If you or anyone you know would like to be a Catechist and feel compelled to help our young children learn about their Catholic faith please feel free to contact Deacon John and set up an appointment.

WE ARE IN NEED OF CATECHIST’S FOR:

Tuesday 6pm 1st grade           (1) teacher and
                                              (2) assistants

Deacon John
