All employees and volunteers who minister and serve the children of our parish must fulfill all the Safe Environment requirements. The diocese of Allentown and State of Pennsylvania require that anyone who has any possible contact with children complete the following background checks and clearances. Volunteers who fail to obtain background checks and attend training are not permitted to remain involved in service to our children until all are completed. All questions and forms should be directed to Maria Rittle, Safe Environment Coordinator at 570-462-1968 or info@dmparish.com or mrittle@dmparish.com.
