IMPORTANT ALERT: SMS Text & Email Scam Activity
We are aware of a few parishioners that have received a text messages (phishing), WhatsApp, and/or emails from Fr Alex asking for donations of gift cards or asking for other assistance. This is a phishing scam which is targeting church-goers at a number of Parishes in the Archdiocese, including Our Lady of Graces. Unfortunately, we are unable to stop these messages at the source. Please ignore and delete such SMS text/WhatsApp messages and/or emails. Fr Alex would never request gifts/contributions in such a way. Welcome...Welcome to the website of Our Lady of Graces Catholic Parish, Carina.
Our Lady of Graces has been a Dominican parish for over 65 years, staffed by a community of Dominican friars. We belong to one of the older religious orders in the Church, founded by St Dominic in the early years of the 13th century. Dominic wanted to help people towards a deeper relationship with God through a better understanding of what God has revealed to us about himself and about what God has made possible for us. If you are considering joining our parish community, contact the parish office, and we will do our best to make you feel ‘at home.’ Fr Alex Vickers O.P. Parish Priest |
