Email & Text Scams


Be cautious. Reports of scams.

Parishioners have been receiving text & email messages asking for money and gift cards from people pretending to be our priests. Please be reminded that our priests and staff do not contact individuals via text message or social media to ask for money or personal information. Do not reply to such text or social media messages and report them to your parish and the Diocese.
