General

Parish Events
 Throughout the year, we offer several parish-wide events (social, service and spiritual) throughout the year. Volunteer team members are needed to ensure the success of these events. There are many ways to help from planning and preparation, to set-up and clean-up, to assistance with decor, to helping with providing a welcoming atmosphere.

Office
 Are you available during class time to help in the Faith Formation Office? We have a variety of tasks and projects including mailings, filing, copying, and material preparation on an ongoing basis. 

Childcare
 As a benefit to our volunteer catechists and assistants, if needed, we provide childcare for their younger children during Faith Formation classes and for meetings and events during the year.  Childcare volunteers must be 18 years of age or older and may bring their own children.
