As a newcomer to St. Bartholomew and Columbus myself, I pray you have experienced the same warm and open welcome as I have.
St. Bartholomew is a Catholic community richly blessed with diversity and talent. Regardless of what language you speak, if you're here permanently or on temporary assignment, if you're married, engaged, single, young, "mature", a parent or grandparent.... you are welcome here! My prayer is that this spiritual home will bring you true peace and comfort.
You'll find many opportunities to grow in your faith, and share your talents. I ask that you make yourself at home, and let us know how we can help. I look forward to meeting you in person soon.
Fr. Chris Wadelton
