Seeking Peer Volunteers!
“Faith Buddies” connects children with disABILITIES with a peer in our parish! Peer volunteers must be 5th Grade or older, complete a Volunteer Application, complete a medical/release form, create a VIRTUS Account (if a teen), watch a small video series & demonstrate kindness, patience and respect toward his or her “Faith Buddy”
Please Contact Lydia at lydias@olmercy.com to register as a peer (must be 5th grade or older).
Peer Volunteer Requirements
If this is your first time volunteering at OLM as part of the REACH program, you will need to turn in a Minor Volunteer Application.
And every year, you will need to complete a Minor Permission and Waiver Form.
High School Teen Volunteers
The Diocese of Joliet requires that all high school teen volunteers watch the Teen Safe Environment Video. This is done through VIRTUS Online. If you do not yet have a VIRTUS account you will need to open one and watch the video. We will provide you with instructions.
