We will be able to send you emails and texts (when appropriate) to alert you of relevant news, such as the announcement of a community gathering, special schedules for Holy Days, or cancellation of Mass due to severe weather. Whether it is saving money on bulk mail or sending out simple reminders about different collections or fundraising opportunities, Flocknote is a tool that can help.
By using, you can expect to receive an email or text (your choice) from the parish about once per week that may include the following types of communications:
