About Our Parish
St. Bartholomew’s is a traditional Anglo-Catholic community. Our faith emphasizes that the Church of England was not merely a creation of the state, but a divine institution with its own authority and traditions.
Sacramental Life. We highlight the importance of the 7 Sacraments, particularly Baptism and the Eucharist, as channels of God’s grace and as central to the church’s corporate life.
The Book of Common Prayer. We use the 1928 Book of Common Prayer as a crucial guide for faith and worship, seeking to uphold its authority and traditions.
Catholic Heritage. A key focus is the Anglican Church’s Catholic heritage, drawing upon early church traditions and practices.
Apostolic Ministry. We underscore the importance of the Ordained Ministry, tracing its lineage back to the Apostles and emphasizing the significance and necessity of the Apostolic Succession. In accordance with Our Lord’s example and Holy Tradition, only men are ordained to Holy Orders.
Beauty of Worship. We advocate for a more beautiful and reverent style of worship, incorporating elements like candles, incense, and vestments, and the Eastward position of the Altar, in contrast to the perceived plainness of some contemporary Anglican worship.
Corporate Life. We emphasize the importance of the church’s corporate life, including the Daily Office, communal prayer, and social action. We embrace a life ethic that respects the sacred dignity of humanity from conception to death.
