Other sites of Interest

THANK YOU for having spent time visiting the Our Lady of Guadalupe Parish website.  If you still have time to spare (before beginning your homework, housework, or yard work), consider spending some time at one of the following sites.

FYI: The latest tactic of pornographers is to purchase domain names of religious websites, when those domain registrations are permitted by their owners to expire. The religious domain name is purchased by the pornographer and used as a referral to porn sites. If you encounter any link on this website which has evolved into a referral to such a site, please notify the parish secretary immediately.
