For those individuals hoping to volunteer their services to the children of our parish, we ask that you stop in the religious education office for a PGC (Protecting God's Children) package.
You will need to complete an application form, attend a PGC workshop, and you will need to go through a background check. (Those fingerprinted & verified through a federal, state, county or city agency will not need to do the background check again).
For a list of available workshop sessions where you can enroll online, sign on at this website.
Loretta Lovell will also provide St. Philip's catechsits an opportunity to attend the workshop here at the church. More workshops are also available with future dates.
