Don't Fall for the Scam!

There has been an uptick in reports of spam messages and emails posing as Fr Ryan asking for gift cards etc.

If it feels out of character to be getting a text from Father Ryan, you are correct! He will not be communicating in that way and never will.

These requests are spam and phishing attempts that are trying to get access to your personal information or your $$$. Do not engage in the request. Delete the text, block the number, report the email as spam and delete it from your account.

And no, unfortunately we cannot stop the spam coming to your phone or email. We recommend that you try to block the number and report the attempt as spam or a phishing attempt to your email or phone provider.

Wishing you blessings this Lent!

2024 Lent Prayer Companion Booklets

Lent is your opportunity to be even more intentional about your faith so that you can know the Father’s mercy, grow closer to Jesus and receive the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Being intentional is more than a mindset, it calls for action. Our Lenten tradition guides us to actively participate with prayer, fasting and service to others.

There is something for everyone in this booklet. Whether this is your first Lent or you have participated for many years, this companion is for you. Throughout these pages, you will find stories and reflections from your fellow St. Francis de Sales parishioners.

We pray that by journeying through Lent toward Jesus and His Resurrection, you will experience a conversion of your heart and mind and share in the Easter Hope of new things to come!!! 

Please keep our parish community in your prayers! If you have any questions please contact us at parishoffice@stfrancislz.org. God Bless!
