Tim Bartholomew

Tim Bartholomew is the worship leader here at Bright Hope. He's been blessed to do so for over 20 years. He loves working with the worship family here to help connect people with our loving Heavenly Father.


God called Tim to be a 5th grade teacher at Nye Elementary School in the Lower Dauphin School District. He loved his time in the classroom with some of God's precious young children. After 33 years of teaching, God called Tim to work with some of God's kids at the other end of the spectrum. He now drives senior citizens around at a local retirement home.


Tim loves being with people. He is blessed with a beautiful wife, Linda. They have three amazing daughters who are married and two of them have given them four grandchildren...so far.


Tim enjoys the beach and seeing all of God's incredible creation. He loves music and listens to it almost constantly. He also has an old Chevelle that he's looking to finish restoring.


He says life is about relationships. First, there's the relationship we have with our Heavenly Father because of Jesus, and then the relationships we have with His precious children. Tim is very grateful and blessed to be a part of the Bright Hope family.
