Unfortunately, there has been an increase in the number of fraudulent emails and texts in recent months. This includes scams that appear to be from St. Bartholomew. If you receive an unsolicited email or text that says it is from St. Bartholomew, it is not. Please do not click on any links, reply back, or open attachments. It is best to simply delete it. The church, or Diocese, will never ask for personal information in the form of email or text.
