Volunteers Needed

It’s important to know that all of our programs require commitment from our families in order to be successful. We ask that you prayerfully consider volunteering your time and talents to our program as a catechist or a chaperone or by offering any special talents or gifts for the benefit of our family faith community. Anyone working with parish children needs to have Protecting God’s Children certification. We can assist you in obtaining this short but essential training.

Volunteers are central to the implementation of all our parish programs.  To be a volunteer the following is mandated by the Archdiocese of Newark for those working with children and young people up to 18 years of age.  Detailed information on this process is provided by clicking here.
