New Phone System
We had a new phone system installed this summer at Assumption. Something new to the system is if you know your party’s 3 digit extension, you need to dial 9 and then the 3 digit extension. That is now at the beginning of the recording, but people are used to just dialing the 3 numbers, and it will not go directly to who you are trying to reach unless you dial 9 first.
