Ministries

At Sacred Heart Parish, we offer many opportunities for the members of our faith community to contribute their time and service to the greater good of God, the Church and the community.

Volunteer Screening Process (revised April 2023)

Protection of Minors and Vulnerable Adults is designed to assist us to make the Church truly safe for the vulnerable, to break down the mistrust and the anger that afflicts so many of our brothers and sisters. The Diocese of Calgary ensures the protection of minors and vulnerable adults by following the standards in Strengthening Our Parish Communities protocols, including screening, training for abuse prevention and reporting and collaboration with civil authorities. ​

To create an environment where abuse is unthinkable and everyone is part of a “culture of safety,” we need to educate everyone who has any kind of leadership or who holds a position of responsibility in the parish, including: all clergy, staff, Parish Pastoral Council and Parish Finance Council members, everyone who works with or around minors or vulnerable adults, coordinators of all ministries, even if their ministry does not involve minors, and all facility key holders.

In the spirit of stewardship and Strengthening Our Parish Communities, the Diocese provides leadership and resources to its parishes and programs for collaborative ministries to thrive in vibrant, respectful, and safe environments.
