Training and Training Refresher Courses

Being involved in ministry is a blessing. The Bishop and our Pastor require that all who are involved in ministry within the Diocese of Phoenix complete the Safe Environment Training (SET) program.

Additionally, as Knights and members of this council, we are often called upon to serve food and beverages for Parish and Council events. In order to participate in these roles/capacities at events, Food and Alcohol Server Training is required.

We are also asked to assist with Bus driving during Christmas and Easter and may be needed while the Rectory is being built this year. Driving on behalf of the parish requires Driver Training.

Below are the links to all of these training opportunities.  If you have not yet updated your SET training for 2025-2026 please do so as soon as possible.  If you don't have current Food & Alcohol serving certificates please take one or both classes so you can help with the upcoming Fall events!

 MANA House

March 22, 2025

Had a very productive day. All 11 brothers came, we put 4 in the kitchen doing various tasks. Even changed the oil in the deep fat fryer. Rest of us organized the storage room, assembled healthcare kits and welcome bags. The food truck showed up and we unloaded it and put the items away for the kitchen staff. We agreed to return in August and we can make a trip down with additional supplies as needed. Tremendous number of contributions , especially kitchen appliances came in from our brothers. The truck was completely full. Very successful.
