Protect My Ministry
Church background checks through Protect My Ministry are designed to help ministries implement and maintain a thorough background screening program for employees, staff, and volunteers.
Think of background checks as a trusty sidekick for your organization. They help you confidently welcome new faces into your team, whether these individuals are paid staff or generous volunteers.
How long does it take?
A background check screens an individual's public and private records once they give consent. You can see the results of background check submissions within 24 to 48 hours.
Why it's important
Let's talk about why background checks are important in your organization. They're not just a formality — they're a crucial step in ensuring the safety and integrity of your community. Think about the people who interact with the most vulnerable among us, like children and the elderly, or those who deal with sensitive information. It's essential to know that these individuals have been thoroughly vetted.
Include anyone who:
Works with children, youth, and vulnerable individuals
Has access to confidential information about members of the congregation
Manages the financial aspects of your organization
Is in a leadership role, such as pastors, leaders, and teachers
