The April, 2013 issue is now available.

Anniversary Celebration - May 26

Father Stephen celebrated his 20th Anniversary of Ordination on April 24. If you didn't have a chance to celebrate with him on that day, join us on Sunday, May 26 for a reception after both Masses to congratulate him. Coffee, Donuts and Juice will be served. This will replace the Sunday, June 2 Coffee and Donuts.

Birthright - June 2

Birthright will collect baby bottles filled with coins, cash or check after Masses on June 2 weekend. If you didn't have a chance to pick a bottle up last weekend, you can pick one up by the parking lot entrance. If you use the insert inside the bottle, to make a donation in honor or in memory of a loved one, Birthright will send an acknowledgement card of your gift of life. This is an opportunity for our church families to have hands-on involvement in a project that saves the lives of unborn children and makes a lasting difference in the mothers' lives. Thank you for any help you can give.

Welcome New Parishioners

Through Baptism we become God's children and brothers and sisters of one another and with Christ. Through registration we become members of the St. Bartholomew parish family of faith. We always welcome new members and hope that you will find our parish family a place where your faith will be nourished. We ask that you register online or fill out a registration form as soon as possible. As a parish family, we are committed to share our goods, talents and faith with one another.

Mission Statement

We, the parish family of St. Bartholomew, strive to live and give witness to our Catholic Christian faith in word, sacrament and service. We work for the reign of God in our lives and in our world: a reign of goodness, truth, justice and peace.

• We proclaim the good news of Christ, inviting all to share in the faith and life of our Catholic community.
• We provide ongoing formation in faith for people of all ages so that they can live and grow as disciples of Jesus Christ.
• We celebrate the presence of God in our midst through personal and communal prayer and the celebration of the sacraments, especially Sunday Eucharist.
• We love one another as God has loved us by providing necessary means, opportunities and structures for people to receive material, emotional and spiritual support both within and beyond our local community.
