community pregnancy center of lake normanfundraising banquet
You’re Invited!
The Community Pregnancy Center of Lake Norman is a service supporting women that recognizes the sanctity of life and offers alternatives to the
tragedy of abortion. Fr. Mark has visited the center and has attended their fund-raising banquet for the past three years. This banquet is the primary fundraiser for the Pregnancy Center and will be held virtually again this year on Thursday, May 20 at 7:00pm. For those who would prefer not to drive in the evening and park downtown, this will be great! You may participate in the banquet from your living room or study.
The goal for this year's banquet is $150,000, which is one-third of their budget. Fr. Mark has agreed to be a table host of our ‘virtual table’ again this year and he is looking for people to join him! If you would like to participate, please contact Fr. Mark via phone or email: 704-664-3992 or mlawlor@sainttherese.net.Many thanks to those who support this positive initiative! You may learn more about the Community Pregnancy Center of Lake Norman and the upcoming banquet here: https://pregnancycenterfriends.org/2021banquet/

scam!
BEWARE OF POSSIBLE SCAM!
Elizabete Melo (pictured) does NOT work at St. Therese Catholic Church and is not affiliated with our parish. If you are approached by this person (via Facebook or email) please report to the local authorities immediately. THANKS!
Email Scam
Several ministry leaders have received emails from someone posing as Fr. Mark Lawlor and asking for a favor. This is a Scam! Scams have been sent from people posing as Fr. Mark Lawlor. Please be aware that scam texts are also being sent.An important message from Fr. Mark: "I have never asked anyone for any financial favor via email or text for any specific charity, with regard to gift cards of any sort. If anyone ever has any doubts, please call me first."
At this time, we believe emails are only being sent to Staff and Ministry Leaders due to their contact information being on our website, but we wanted to alert all our parishioners of this scam.To verify the legitimacy of a request from any of our parish clergy, you may call the Parish Office at 704-664-3992.
Thank you! Stay safe and be well!
