Weddings
By
appointment, one year before date of marriage.
Only registered parishioners who worship regularly here are
married at St. Bartholomew Church. Arrangements for a wedding
must be made personally with the Pastor about one year prior to
the wedding date in order to fulfill the Marriage Preparation
Program required in our Diocese.
Baptisms
2nd
Saturday of Every Month, at 1:30 PM. Rehearsal on
previous Friday at 7:30 PM. Appointment necessary.
SPONSORS at Baptism represent the believing
Christian Community. Thus it is required that they be practicing
Catholics in good standing with the Church, who have themselves
received the Sacraments of Eucharist and Confirmation and have
reached the age of 16. If they are married, they must have been
validly married in the Church. The Code of Canon Law states they
must lead... .a life in harmony with faith and the role to
be undertaken.. .and will help the baptized to lead a Christian
life in harmony with Baptism, and to fulfill faithfully the
obligations connected with it. Please, therefore, do not
embarrass yourself and the priest by choosing individuals who are
not faithful church-goers.
SPONSOR CERTIFICATES-One of the wonderful
privileges of being a practicing Roman Catholic and belonging to
a parish as a worshiping member of a "Faith Community"
is the ability to represent the Catholic Church at the Sacraments
of Baptism and Confirmation. Sponsor certificates, therefore, are
given only to practicing Catholics by the pastor of the Church
where they attend Mass each Sunday. Your parish priests do not
have the authority to award these certificates to persons who do
not worship here, or to persons whose parents or grandparents
worship here. Having been baptized at Saint Bartholomew Church or
having attended school here does not make you a parishioner or a
member of the "Faith Community" of this parish.
Remember that being a "Sponsor" at a Sacrament makes
you a proper representative of the Catholic Church. If you do not
go to Mass or practice your Catholic faith, the role of
representative would be inappropriate for you. How could you ever
represent a group in which you no longer participate?

Parish
History
-- The
Parish of St. Bartholomew in the community of Silver Lake was
organized in 1905 by Rev. Domenico Belliotti, P.S.S.C., then the
Pastor of Holy Ghost Church in Federal Hill. Services were first
held in the San Liberato Hall on 621 Union Avenue until the first
Church, located on Moorefield Street, was dedicated on September
22, 1907. A Shrine and Park now stands in the location of that
first Church.
From 1907 till 1911 the Parish was considered a filial mission of
Holy Ghost Parish on Federal Hill and was staffed by the Pastor,
Rev. Domenico Belliotti, P.S.S.C., and the Priests of Holy Ghost
- Rev. Vittorio Gregori, P.S.S.C. - 1907 - 1908; Rev. Nicolino
Armento, P.S.S.C. - 1908 - 1910
St. Bartholomew's became an independent Parish in 1910
with the Rev. Leonard Quaglia as the first resident Pastor.
In 1969, because of the increase in size of the Parish throughout
the years, a new and larger Church was built next to the Parish
School on Laurel Hill Avenue.
The Parish is staffed by the Missionary Fathers of St. Charles
Borromeo (Congregation of Scalabrinians - C.S.)
The following served as Pastors:
Rev. Leonardo Quaglia, P.S.S.C. - 1910 -
1916 (dec. September 4, 1956)
