Email addresses and phone numbers of staff and parishioners have been taken from online bulletins through- out the archdiocese. Fr. Andrew will NEVER call, text or email you asking for money, gift cards, or emergency funds. The crimi- nals set up bogus email accounts in the name of the pastor through Google, AOL, etc. They can even make it look like it is from his @Stclarem.org address.
