Fingerprinting Information

ALL volunteers who work with our children are required to be fingerprinted.  Effective immediately, on the second Thursday of each month, personnel will be available from 6:30 PM to 7:30 PM at the Religious Education Center in Manahawkin, to schedule anyone who still needs to be fingerprinted.  This is an online process which requires a credit card payment.  A check for $15 will be collected at the time of the scheduling.  This is a deposit only and will be returned upon the submission of the completed paperwork to the Religious Education Center.

Anyone who prefers to schedule their own appointment online may pickup the required paperwork at the Religious Education Center.  Upon submission of the completed paperwork to the rectory, the fee will be reimbursed.
