SCAM ALERT: A growing number of parishes are reporting that emails have been received by their parishioners, allegedly from their pastor or a member of the parish staff, asking people to purchase gift cards or send money to help the poor. This is a total scam – and unfortunately is being seen around the country. Priests or representatives of the Church will never contact you by text or email to ask for any "favors" or for donations of cash or gift cards. PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO SUCH MESSAGES! The Diocese of Paterson has a policy that instructs all of its personnel to NEVER follow any email or text requests for any type of transfer of funds, purchases or sending any form of money for any purpose. Any fraud attempts and scam activity should always be reported to local law enforcement. The Parish Office is closed from December 23, 2024 - January 5, 2025 The Rectory office is open from 8:30AM – 1:30PM Monday - Thursday. St. Simon Daily Mass (Monday - Saturday) will be at 8:00AM.
Volunteers are always needed for collection counters, lectors, choir members, ushers and hospitality; please consider one of these. We need to realize that the parish is a community of people of all ages and talents so please step up to serve.
