Communication

Communications related to all Youth Faith Formation programs will primarily be sent out to the emails addresses and phone numbers provided in the registration form, from The Director of Formation and Engagement (Ryan Adamson). Families may also receive emails via our parish wide Constant Contact tool, and text messages.

A Safe Environment

Our parish is committed to providing safe, well-structured environments for children and youth. To do this well, we follow diocesan requirements and parish procedures that help ensure all adults serving in these ministries are properly trained, screened, and supported. The Youth Faith Formation VIRTUS Guide outlines what is initially required to volunteer to work with minors, why these steps matter, and how to complete them. It is intended to be a clear, practical reference for both new and returning volunteers.

This document is for all volunteers serving in Youth Faith Formation at Most Blessed Sacrament Parish, including those involved in:

Catechesis of the Good Shepherd
Religious Education (K–6)
ADORE Youth Ministry (Grades 7–12)
Confirmation Preparation (Grade 8)
OCIC (Order of Christian Initiation for Children)
