PHISHING SCAM ALERT

Please do not open any suspicious links in your email!

This morning (April 17) it appears that some of our folks received an email from "Christian Chariton."

The subject line of at least one of these emails reads "RE: Appointment Confirmation," which makes it seem important, right? Since we do not regularly make appointments with people via email, this is a good first clue that the email did not originate with us.

A second clue is in the body of the text: "Those photographs have been attached recently" followed by a clickable link. Don't know what photos we're talking about? Don't recall ever having a conversation about photos being attached somewhere online? That's because this is a scam. DO NOT CLICK THE LINK!

In general, if you receive an email, text, or even phone call that claims to be from a trusted source but DOES NOT MAKE SENSE (i.e. you have no idea what this is in response to) trust your gut and do not engage. Feel free to report it as spam, and delete it from your inbox.

We do appreciate when you let us know, so that we can inform others of the specifics when they show up. Typically, when a church or organization is targeted this way, scammers know enough not to send it to the pastors or church office, so unless someone else tells us, we may not even know its happening!

In conclusion, when you receive an email, text, or call that seems suspicious, remember these things:

1. Always double, even triple-check the sender. If you do not have that contact info saved, or it does not match what you have saved, be suspicious.

2. Trust your gut! If the subject line or body of the email doesn't make sense, there's a reason.

3. When in doubt, let someone else know. Do not reply to the text or email directly; use the contact info you already have saved in your device to reach out and ask if it is a legitimate communication.

Stay informed and stay safe, everyone!

Blessings,
Pastor Rachel Fredericks

EASTER LILIES…The worship committee is inviting everyone to bring an Easter lily (or two) to make our worship space even more beautiful for Easter Sunday. Those who wish to donate lilies can purchase & bring them to the church on Easter or any day before Easter Sunday. If you need help coordinating a time to drop off, please let church staff or an elder know!

Join us tomorrow for Palm Sunday for a special worship service to remember Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem. We will gather in Fellowship Hall just before 10:30 am and enter the sanctuary together waiving our Palms to the sounds triumphal organ music from Karen’s talented hands.
