Volunteers
Each year, many people just like you and me
volunteer to do something amazing – they take time
out from their busy lives to serve their parish as
Religious Education teachers, aides and home-site volunteers. When
the year comes to an end, they often find that
through their experience, they too, were
spiritually enriched. These caring people, by
their word and example, help our children to
recognize God’s presence in their daily life. They
help our children see the goodness of His
creation.
Our religious education program could not run
without our volunteers. If you feel called to
serve in this ministry, but are concerned that you
may not be qualified, please do not let this
discourage you. The requirements for this position
are “people” of faith who have the desire to help
others grow in their faith. We will provide you
with all the support you need, including excellent
teaching materials. The summer months are often a
good time to become familiar with our textbooks
and audio-visual materials.
