Parish Census 2024

Dear St. Bartholomew Parishioner(s),

We are preparing to update the information in our parish database. In an attempt to record the most accurate information possible, we need your assistance.

While parish staff are diligently registering new parishioners and weeding out families who have reported moving, we know that some families are no longer active in the parish or have experienced changes: new addresses or old landlines, deaths, or births in the family, or adult children who leave home.

Having an accurate count of our members and knowing how to contact them is important. This helps us know what types of programs to offer to help the parish encounter Christ, better engage donors with our stewardship efforts, and equip us to communicate important information about events and ministries.

We realize that this task may take a few minutes of your time, but the updated information you provide will equip us to serve you better. Please know how much your assistance is appreciated in this project.

Thank you and God Bless!

- Fr. John Klockeman
Pastor
