VIRTUS Training

The Diocese of Trenton requires anyone over the age of 18 who participates in a Parish ministry to attend a VIRTUS training session every four years to safeguard children and vulnerable adults.  What this means is that every adult who currently volunteers for SML Church, School, or PREP and has not previously attended a VIRTUS session, or who has not taken a refresher course within the past four years, must attend a class as soon as possible.  
VIRTUS Training Sessions are offered at parishes throughout the Diocese.
 
Safe Environment Criminal Background Check

Please check their website HERE
 or call 877-503-5981 to make an appointment. 

Any questions please call Lenora at the parish office 609-654-8208 or email lgange@smlparish.org
