NOTICE:

Fr. Paul's Facebook page (Paul Ring Ofs) was hacked on August 8th. He is not selling his car, and anyone asking for money for it is a fraud! Please do not send them any money!! If you are on Facebook, please unfriend and report this profile.

Due to the hack, the parish Facebook pages are also suspended. We are working on getting them restored, but until that happens there will be no livestreaming or posting.

If you have any questions, please contact the parish office. Thank you.
