Is KCYS training required?

At this time, Keeping Children and Youth Safe (KCYS) training isn’t compulsory for our members since the nature of our ministry requires each member to accompany and be responsible for her own children at all times.

All members are encouraged to attend a KCYS training session, however. It is a Diocesan policy that all volunteers have a background check and attend a KCYS training session, and as our ministry grows and we branch out into service to our church community, KCYS training will be required.

Our Ministry Coordinator (and her husband) are current with KCYS certification.

Please contact the parish office for details about upcoming KCYS training sessions or e-mail the Ministry Coordinator with any questions.

How do I join?

Joining The Little Way for Moms and Kids is easy! Just complete our Member Survey, e-mail the Ministry Coordinator, or join us for our Monthly Meet & Greet on the first Sunday of the month after the 8:30 a.m. Mass during hospitality (coffee & doughnuts in the gym).

Remember, it is free to join!

Is there a wellness policy?

Yes. In short, mothers and children are restricted from attending if they are ill. Please read the Wellness Policy for details.

Are there any dues?

No, there are no membership dues. It is free to join The Little Way for Moms and Kids.

Who can join?

Membership is open to all moms in our church parish as well as nearby Catholic moms who want to participate because we’re cool like that. (As an ICC-based ministry, meetings and activities will be local.) All mothers are welcome—new, experienced, expecting, nursing—you get the idea!

If you’re interested in participating, please take the time to complete our Member Survey or e-mail the Ministry Coordinator.
