Text and Email Phishing 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 representationvs 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.

inclement weather
Generally, Annunciation Church is open Monday through Friday at 6:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. for Adoration to the Blessed Sacrament, daily Mass, praying of the Holy Rosary . . . during inclement weather at the regularly scheduled times. However, to balance availability and Parishioner safety, guidelines have been developed to make appropriate decisions during inclement weather.
If the Wayne Public School District is closed or has a delayed opening during extreme weather on a Monday through Friday, any scheduled 7:30 a.m. Mass will not be held, and the Mass intention will be moved to the 12:05 p.m. Mass.
Parishioners are encouraged to use their own judgment when venturing out in times of inclement weather in order not to endanger themselves or their families.
In the event of a declared state of emergency or travel ban, the 12:05 p.m. Mass will be cancelled, and Fr. Ricardo will celebrate a private Mass for the intentions of the day.
In the event all parish activities, daytime and evening, that are scheduled during the closure period are cancelled, the Parish Office will be closed as well.
Weekend Masses will be celebrated as scheduled.
Please, always remember to use your discretion when venturing out into inclement weather.

With the Supreme Court deciding the fate of the blatantly anti-Catholic Blaine Amendments that have long struck a blow to the heart of religious liberty, it is good to know that we have someone who has our backs when it comes to religious freedom issues. That person is U.S. Attorney General William Barr, one of this nation’s foremost proponents of religious liberty’s vital importance to our nation.Read More -
