Calling all volunteers to help as we prepare for the Lenten Season. The St. Gabriel Fish Fry will be held starting Friday, March 7^th and every Friday until April 11^th.  No Fish Fry on Good Friday.  There are many opportunities for everyone to volunteer.  Please contact Bud Waxter at 412 860-9045 or email [email protected]  Thank you for your continued support!

If you volunteer at either of Our Lady of Hope Fish Frys and/or Bingo, please contact Lynda McFarland to ensure your 

clearances are up to date.  All volunteers must have updated clearances.

All Volunteers Who Complete the Safe Environment Procedure Online

If you complete your Safe Environment requirements online, please note that the results of the Child Abuse History Clearance will be sent to your email.  It is by default to be in your email for 48 hours and then it disappears for your safety.  Please be sure to print the certificate before it is removed.  If you do not print it in that time frame, you will have to contact Virtus to get the certificate.  Remember, you are not compliant if the certificate is not submitted to the Safe Environment Office. The Safe Environment Office has no way of retrieving your certificate. 

All Volunteers Who Complete the Safe Environment Procedure Using Paper Forms 

For those completing the Safe Environment requirements using the paper forms, please be sure to submit to the Safe Environment office the Child Abuse History Clearance certificate that you receive in the mail.  The Office has no way of retrieving that certificate without you submitting it. Remember,  you are not compliant if the certificate is not submitted to the Safe Environment   Office.  

Protecting God’s Children and Vulnerable Adults

 Once all Safe Environment Clearances are completed, all volunteers are required to finish the process with the Protecting God’s Children and Vulnerable Adults module. This is a mandated requirement for everyone who volunteers.  Once assigned, there is a 30 day grace period to complete this module.
