Recently there has been an increased number of spam requests, supposedly coming from me, asking for gift cards or contributions for various reasons.  Please do not reply to these requests.  They are bogus.  I will never ask for any donation by text or email.  Furthermore, I do not share my phone number with parishioners, you will never receive communication from me in this manner. Please share this with anyone who may not be on social media. Thank you, Bishop Mark
