VOLUNTEER CLEARANCE REQUIREMENTS

Thank you for choosing to serve with The Bible Chapel (TBC)! At TBC, the safety and security of our children, students, and others are critical to the health of our ministry. To follow Pennsylvania state laws, most ministry volunteers are required to have three separate background clearances: PA State PolicePA Child Abuse, and The Bible Chapel Affidavit (if applicable) OR FBI Fingerprinting.

The ministries that require clearances are Café, Chapel Kids, Chapel Students, Medical/Security Team, Special Needs, and Worship. These clearances serve to confirm and ensure that volunteers do not have a record of child abuse or any other criminal actions that would make them ineligible to volunteer with children. To read more, visit www.keepkidssafe.pa.gov. The Bible Chapel recommends that you click on the links below to download and print the clearance instructions.
