As Catholics, we hopefully are always aware of the importance of the Eucharist in our lives, and of the need we have to thank God each day for the presence of the Eucharist in our hearts and in our world.Read More

Weekend of June 22-23, 2024
Dear Parishioners of St Timothy’s and St Bartholomew’s,
It is with great joy and humility that I introduce myself as your new pastor. My name is Father John Hutter, and I feel incredibly blessed to join this vibrant faith community.
First, I want to express my deepest gratitude for the welcome I received upon arriving. Your kindness and enthusiasm are truly inspiring, and they reinforce my belief in the strength of this parish family.
As your pastor, I desire to serve you with sincerity and compassion. I am here to walk alongside you in your spiritual journeys, to celebrate the joys of life with you, and to provide support and solace during times of challenge. Our parish is a family, and I am committed to fostering an environment where everyone – every single person - feels welcomed, valued, and supported.
I bring with me a deep love for the teachings of our Church and a dedication to spreading God's love through our actions and words. Together, let us continue to grow in faith, deepen our relationship with God, and extend a helping hand to those in need.
I sincerely believe that the Catholic Church needs more priests. I plan to aid any young man whom God is calling to the priesthood. I also think that some older members of our parishes are being called to the Permanent Diaconate. I promise them my support as well
There is one problem. A few weeks ago, I tripped and broke some bones in my left foot. I had surgery to repair this last week. It will take a few more weeks for healing. Please bear with me during this time for I am limited in my ability to ambulate and, thus, to say Mass.
In the meantime, please do not hesitate to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to getting to know each of you better and to journeying together in faith.
May God bless you abundantly,
Fr. John Hutter
Pastor
