Scammers at it again…

Posted onAuthorMary Meissner

Please note that there has been an email scam sent out on behalf of Bishop Berg requesting the purchase of gift cards. The email looks like it is coming from Stephen Berg but if you look at the email address carefully it is not coming from the diocese. See email source: Stephen Berg < <mailonline486@gmail.com>
This email address is not associated with the Diocese of Pueblo. If you receive this type of email, please report it as junk. That way it will be blocked from being sent to your email again. Delete this email and avoid opening it.
Note: You will never receive any type of email requests from the diocese that does not include the email address extension @dioceseofpueblo.org
This also includes email or texts you would receive from Fr. Zaldy or the Parish Staff. Please do not fall for these scams.

Resources to talk with kids about the school shooting

Posted onAuthorMary Meissner

The latest news about the school shooting in Uvalde, TX has certainly left me rattled.  I have been praying for all those involved in this horrible tragedy.
Please send your prayers up to a God who loves us and cares for us.  God hears our prayers.
If your children are distraught about this (or you work with children) I found these article from Group Publishing – a well-respected Christian publisher.
I thought they were very good and helpful.  I’m sharing them here for you.
Helping Children Process the School Shooting in Uvalde, TX
Trauma Toolkit: 4 Things You Can Do To Help Kids Heal
6 Secrets to Raising Fearless Kids in a Fear-Filled World
Ministering to Kids in Crisis When You Don’t Have a Counseling Degree

Helping Children to Cope with Violence and Tragedy – Again
In addition, Fr. Carl shared this prayer with me from the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops, in case that would be helpful to you.
Order for the Blessing of a Victim of Crime or Oppression
Blessings on all of you.  Prayers for a more peaceful world.
