Dear St. Rose Community,

The St. Rose Staff has been contacted by several parishioners today, Monday, February 11, 2019, about an email or text message that appears to have been sent by Father Mateo asking for donations for iTunes gift cards or some other type of monetary request.  Fr. Mateo DID NOT, repeat DID NOT, send this email nor a text message asking for a donation.  This is SPAM.  Fr. Mateo or any other member of the St. Rose staff would not solicit donations in this manner.  DO NOT take any action on these requests.  
 
A Flocknote has also been sent out regarding this situation. 

If you ever have a question about a correspondence from St. Rose, please contact the office at
301-948-7545.
 

God Bless,
 
Deacon Leo

Fr. Mateo has written a letter summarizing what he discussed at all the Masses the weekend of  December 8-9, 2018.  He spoke about the many healing aspects within St. Rose and the effects of the Church's current crisis on St. Rose of Lima.  To read a copy of the letter and look at the offertory financial numbers from July 1, 2018 to November 30, 2018, please click HERE.
