Please be advised that there is a nationwide scam that has affected several parishes in the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. This particular scam is titled the "Gift Card" scam. In this scam, the parishioners of a parish are the targets. An unknown person creates an email address account which contains the pastor's name or the name of the church. An email is then sent to parishioners requesting them to purchase gift cards and then proceed to tell the unknown person the numbers off of the backs of the cards. After the person received the numbers, they stopped sending emails. Multiple parishioners have been receiving emails from a fake Gmail account posing as Fr. Terry. Please do not respond to any request for money. As a general rule, if anyone asks you for money by purchasing gift cards, it is a scam. Please inform anyone who you think may be susceptible to this kind of scam, especially the elderly. Our parish staff deeply regrets this deceitful attempt to victimize our parishioners. Again, please do not respond to the email. Welcome! A warm welcome to Visitation BVM Parish and our Parish Website! We are a Roman Catholic Parish of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia, founded in 1954. Our address is 196 North Trooper Road, Norristown, PA 19403-2600. We are located in Montgomery County about 5 miles from Valley Forge National Historical Park. You can access driving directions and our Mass Schedule from links below. If you are new to the Valley Forge/Norristown Area, please consider making Visitation your parish home. We offer a wealth of parish organizations and activities for a variety of interests. For ministry to our children, we offer a wonderful pre-K through 8th grade parish school with a very fine Home and School Association. We also have an active Catholic Youth Organization and a High School Youth Ministry. If you are interested in learning about the Catholic Faith, the Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) meets on a weekly basis. All are welcome; including long time Catholics looking for a refresher course in the faith.
