DAILYPRAYERFORPRIESTS
O Jesus,I pray for your faithful and; fervent priests;
For your unfaithful and tepid priests;For your priests laboring at home or
Abroad in distant mission fields.For your tempted priests;
For your lonely and desolate priests;
For your young priests; For your dying priests;For the souls of your priests in Purgatory.But above all, I recommend to you
The priests dearest to me;The priest who baptized me;
The priests who absolved me from my sins;The priests at whose MassesI assisted and who gave me
Your Body and Blood in Holy Communion;The priests who taught and instructed me;
All the priests to whom I am indebtedin any other way
(especially...)O Jesus, keep them all close to your heart,
And bless them abundantly
in time and in Eternity,
Amen

SENIORCORNER- SCAMALERT: IRS WONTCALLYOUOUTOFTHEBLUE
One of the more nefarious scams around is the IRSscam as it preys on citizens who fear getting be-hind on their taxes and incurring penalties andfines. Callers claim to be IRS employees, but they
are not. They use fake names and bogus IRS badgenumbers and they may have information abouttheir targets such as the last four digits of theirSocial Security Number, address and phone num-ber. They alter the caller ID to make it look as ifthe IRS is calling. This is easily accomplishedthrough voice calls over an Internet connection.These con artists could be calling from anywherein the world, regardless of the area code victimssee when they pick up the phone.
THEIRS WILLNOT:1. Call to demand immediate payment; they
would mail you a bill first.
2. Demand that you pay taxes without allowingyou to question or appeal.
3. Ask you to pay an IRS debt by using a prepaiddebit card.
4. Require credit card information over the phone.
5. Threaten to have you arrested.
If you are called from someone claiming to be fromthe IRS and asking for money and you know orthink you might owe taxes, call the IRS at (800)
829-1040. If you do not owe taxes, report the inci-dent to the Treasury Inspector General for TaxAdministration (TIGTA) at (800) 366-4484 or atwww.tigta.gov.
Supper Saturday ~ February 14thLooking for something to do on ValentinesDay? Come join ECYA in watching the new film,Old Fashioned.
In response to the morally and spiritually destruc-tive production of 50 Shades of Grey that is so en-thusiastically embraced by the secular world, wefeel its our responsibility as servants of The Lord tostand up for LOVE and how its lived in God-honoring relationships. Lets shake up the world abit and show them that the public wants REALLOVE!Remember, change starts with us! Couples,singles, and consecrated are all welcome. Meet atSanta Sophia after the 4:30 pm Mass and we willcarpool to Parkway Plaza for dinner & the movie.
