Does your service in ministry involve ministry to minors (under 18 years of age)?

PLEASE NOTE!  The Diocese of Paterson has implemented a new process to comply with the diocesan “Safe Environment Policy” for the protection of minors.  This new process is effective today, February 1st, 2018, for all new volunteers working with minors.
