Beware Pastor Scams
Pictured : Sample fake emails and texts sent to fellow parishioners pretending to be Fr. George
Sadly this is an announcement we have to make once and a while, and while it's not unique to our parish, that doesn't make it any less upsetting.
Should you receive an email or text message from anybody purporting to be Father George and requesting your help or a donation please do not respond to it. He would not contact you asking for donations or gift cards in such a way. If you are skeptical of any communications, forward the email to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or call the office directly at 757-877-5021. The office staff will be more than happy to find out if the message is legitimate.
Report spam texts to your carrier. Copy the original message and forward it to 7726 (SPAM) free of charge, if you are an AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, or Sprint subscriber.
These scams are not isolated events at our church only, they happen across the country and across all denominations.
Brothers and Sisters in Christ,
The Columbarium Committee has obtained a programmable digital lock for the Columbarium entry gate.
This lock will permit Vault Owners and family members to access their Columbarium unit at any time. Each Owner will have a unique PIN that will provide access.
This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. will be contacting all Owners to obtain the preferred PIN number.
No changes will be made prior to contacting all owners.
If you have questions or concerns, please call Dave Chase at 757-342-3014
