Written ‘Nods

Fr. Michael J. Bartholomew

Thank you for being the kind of priest you are—so caring, welcoming, and genuinely devoted to everyone in your parish. The way you guide and support people, while building a community centered on the Eucharist, really makes a difference in all our lives. I’m especially grateful for everything you do for the Spanish-speaking Catholic community, helping everyone feel seen, valued, and connected to God. Thank you for all the time and heart you pour into your ministry—it’s clear how much you care and how much of a positive impact you have on all of us.

Fr. Thomas Fallati

I just want to extend a ‘Nod to you for everything you do to support other priests and guide those figuring out their own call to the priesthood. Hearing your story — how you felt God’s call, spent years in law, and then stepped fully into the priesthood — is so inspiring. Even though you’re not practicing law anymore, it’s amazing how that experience shows up in your ministry, giving you insight and perspective that make such a difference. The way you care for priests and parishioners alike really shows how God can use every part of our lives for His work, and I feel so grateful to witness that through you

Fr. Chris Ballard

I just want to take a moment to thank you for all the amazing work you do for your parish and the wider community. The way you pour yourself into outreach and stay involved in people’s lives really shows how much you care, and it’s inspiring to see. You’re such a true teacher, not just to parishioners, but to other priests, leading by example and showing how faith can be shared in meaningful, practical ways. I love how your ministry is so engaging — the way you listen, have real conversations, and guide people through their journey of faith makes a huge impact. Your dedication and approach leave a lasting impression, not just on parishioners but on anyone who has the chance to learn from you. Thank you for being such a steady, compassionate presence and for helping so many of us grow in our faith.
