Scam alert!

Recently, some parishioners have reported receiving requests for gift cards from Fr. Bernard and Fr. Eddie by email. This type of thing is always a scam. Priests would not request gift cards from parishioners, let alone indirectly through email.They would ask directly for volunteer work. Always disregard this type of indirect request, especially for money or gift cards from priests as being a scam.
