Any time a priest, deacon or speaker not affiliated with the Diocese of Fargo gives a presentation on Church property or on behalf of the Church in the Diocese of Fargo, the “Speaker Permission Form” must be completed and submitted to the Chancellor’s Office. The requesting organization must also make sure that a background check is completed for all lay speakers.
If a cleric from outside the Diocese of Fargo will be doing ministry while in the Diocese of Fargo, he needs to submit a Testimonial of Good Standing from their diocese or religious congregation.
