As discussed in our Orientation Meetings in January, you are required by the Archdiocese, to complete some online classes in VIRTUS. VIRTUS is the brand name of a program that identifies best practices programs designed to help prevent wrongdoing and promote “rightdoing” within religious organizations.
Here at St Dominic’s, and in every parish, throughout the Archdiocese, we follow the guidance from the Office of Victim Assistance & Safe Environment (OVASE) at the Archdiocese. All volunteers are required to register in VIRTUS and will be submitted for a Background Check. You will need to complete one or more of these courses based on your role in the Ministry:
- Protecting God’s Children
- Protecting Vulnerable Adults
- Sexual Harassment
You will need to login at www.VIRTUSOnline.org. You will be prompted to create an Account with User name and Password. We will soon have a link located on the St. Dominic Website to more quickly access VIRTUS. The St. Dominic Website can also be accessed through MyParish App when installed on your phone. Additionally, our Liturgy Ministry Monthly Schedules, when published, are available on the St Dominic’s home page.
If you need any assistance please contact us. We are here to assist. Our goal to have you ACTIVATED and included in the March Liturgy Schedule. We will forward additional training material once you complete your required VIRTUS training. PLEASE EMAIL US WHEN YOU HAVE COMPLETED YOUR CLASSES SO WE CAN BEGIN SENDING YOU YOUR MINISTRY ROLE TRAINING MATERIAL (USHER, EUCHARISTIC MINISTER, CUP, LECTOR)
Holy Mass
Why do we commemorate Holy Week?
Holy Week honors the week that changed the world. From Palm Sunday through Easter Sunday, there were many events that are vital to our faith, including the Institution of the Eucharist, the Passion of Jesus, and His Resurrection from the dead.

Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 8,31-42.
and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
They answered him, "We are descendants of Abraham and have never been enslaved to anyone. How can you say, 'You will become free'?"
Jesus answered them, "Amen, amen, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.
A slave does not remain in a household forever, but a son always remains.
So if a son frees you, then you will truly be free.
I know that you are descendants of Abraham. But you are trying to kill me, because my word has no room among you.
I tell you what I have seen in the Father's presence; then do what you have heard from the Father."
They answered and said to him, "Our father is Abraham." Jesus said to them, "If you were Abraham's children, you would be doing the works of Abraham.
But now you are trying to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God; Abraham did not do this.
You are doing the works of your father!" (So) they said to him, "We are not illegitimate. We have one Father, God."
Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and am here; I did not come on my own, but he sent me.
