Did You Know?

You May Need SafeChurch Training!


The Diocese of Atlanta requires SafeChurch training for clergy and church members in the following situations:


If you work with children and/or youth in any capacity, including planning or supervising a youth ministry, Christian Formation, nursery care, or volunteer programs, you must complete Safeguarding God's Children.


If you are an employee of the church, a Vestry member, a lay pastoral care minister, Eucharistic Visitor, or a leader or facilitator of an adult program or small group ministry, you must complete Safeguarding God's People.


These classes are held by the Diocese via Zoom, or there is an in-person training at St. Mark's in LaGrange on Saturday, September 28.


There will be a Safeguarding God's CHILDREN session in the morning and a Safeguarding God's PEOPLE session in the afternoon. 


Click here to register for one or both sessions at St. Mark's.


If you are unsure whether you need to take this training, or if you have taken it in the past and want to confirm your certificate is still valid, contact Erin in the church office for assistance.
