Dominican Father Bartholomew Hutcherson presented the “Uniquely Luke” parish mission at the Cathedral of the Madeleine June 6-9. He is shown giving a blessing on the final day of the mission. Father Bart, as he prefers to be called, is a friar of the Dominican Province of the Most Holy Name of Jesus. He was assigned to St. Catherine of Siena Newman Center in Salt Lake City from 1997 to 2001, his first appointment as an ordained priest. In May he published a book, “For the Beauty of the Earth: Experiencing the Glory of God in the Wonders of the 49th State,” which contains photographs that he took in Alaska, as well as reflections and prayers. Proceeds from the book go toward his preaching ministry. To purchase the book, visit frbart.com.
