On Sundays (and at the Saturday evening Mass) we have a team Hospitality Ministers who will greet you at the door of the Church and can show you where to find the sanctuary, event locations, restrooms or anything else you need to know. We also have a welcome desk at the bottom of the stairs in the Narthex which is staffed most weekends by members of our Pastoral Council. They can answer any questions you have and assist with anything you might need such as registering as a parishioner or helping you to connect with a group or ministry.
If you are visiting on a weekday, you can also visit us at the Rectory Office which is the orange brick building to the left of the Church (when you are facing it head-on). We can provide information on sacraments, registering as a parishioner, Mass cards, and anything else you might need.
We have several opportunities for children and families at our parish.
CHILDREN'S LITURGY OF THE WORD | This Sunday experience helps children to hear about God on their own level. Children’s Liturgy of the Word at our 10:30AM Mass enriches the liturgical experience of our children in grades 1 – 4 by providing an opportunity to listen to God speak through the scriptures in the Children’s Lectionary, to reflect on the Word of God, and to respond to God’s Word through music, discussion and activities. Children will be invited forward after the opening prayer at the 10:30AM Mass and will return to the Mass shortly after the Homily. Registration is not required.
PRAY AND PLAY | This a wonderful Sunday experience for preschoolers (ages 3-5) and kindergartners. Children should be dropped off in the Aftercare Room, on the lower level of the Church, just prior to the 10:30AM Mass on Sundays. Here they will engage in fun activities and hear the Gospel at their level of understanding. They should be picked up immediately following Mass. No registration required. Come see what we are all about! Registration is not required.
EMMAUS FAMILY FAITH FORMATION | This is our primary faith formation (formerly Religious Education) program, which invites families with children between grades 1-6 to learn and grow in faith as a family unit. We offer Sunday sessions once a month during a 7-month period that involve activities for kids, formation for parents, and opportunities to learn, connect and grow as a family within our faith community.

NOAH'S ARK FAMILY MINISTRY | The mission of this ministry is to encourage and support the St. Bartholomew the Apostle families with young children to grow in their faith, connect with the parish, and help parents in their vocation. Events are geared toward families with children six and younger, but all families (young and old) are welcome to join! We also support parish wide events with activities for children.

If you would like to receive one or more of these sacraments as an adult, we welcome you to come to RCIA. If you are an inquirer and would simply like to ask questions and learn more in a welcoming environment, RCIA is the place for you, too! Please visit our RCIA page here to learn more!
