'''Bartholomew''' (Saint Bartholomew in [[Catholic]] and [[Orthodox Church|Orthodox]] traditions) was one of [[Jesus]]'s twelve [[Apostles]].  Historians suggest that he was the same person as Nathaniel, as mentioned in [[John]] 1:45-51 and 21:2. ''He was one of the disciples to whom Jesus appeared at the Sea of Tiberias after His [[resurrection]]. He was also a witness of [[the Ascension]].'' <ref>[http://www.keyway.ca/htm2002/apostles.htm The Twelve Apostles]</ref>

''O Glorious Saint Bartholomew, Jesus called you a person without guile and you saw in this word a sign that he was the Son of God and King of Israel. Obtain for us the grace to be ever guileless and innocent as doves. At the same time, help us to have your gift of faith to see the Divine hand in the events of daily life. May we discern the signs of the times that lead to Jesus on earth and will eventually unite us to him forever in heaven. [[Amen]].'' <ref>[http://www.catholic-forum.com/saints/pray0150.htm Prayer]</ref>
