“Jesus, however, called the children to himself and said, ‘Let the children come to me and do not prevent them; for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these.’” (Luke 18:16)  

​

St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, and the entire Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter, are committed to providing a safe environment for all our parishioners - from the youngest to the oldest. 

​

As a part of that effort, the Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter has instituted a robust Safe Environment program. Here at St. John the Baptist, we participate fully in this program. We provide mandatory training (including detailed background checks) for all volunteers who work with children. We also provide parents with materials to use in discussing safe environment issues with their own children.
