Suspicious Emails

We have become aware that there are emails being sent to some parishioners that appear to be from a parish volunteer. These emails request that you buy gift cards on their behalf. These are fraudulent emails that are NOT being sent by the person named in the email. If you receive an email from ANYBODY asking you to buy gift cards on their behalf, please DELETE IT. They are ALWAYS fraud.
