Faces of Endearment

Faces of Endearment

Fr. Valens Waldschmidt, OFM, and Fr. Cyprian Berens, OFM, at this year's Jubilee celebration.

Starting November 15, three familiar faces will turn up all over town (and TV) when the month-long Retirement Fund for Religious campaign is launched by the Archdiocese of Cincinnati.

Planners chose images of Fr. Cyprian Berens, OFM, and Sr. Bernadette Asbach, OSF (our receptionist at St. Francis Friary) to adorn 17 billboards.

Sr. Bernadette Asbach, OSF, decorates Easter Eggs for the annual St. Francis Seraph Egg Hunt.

Look for them at Spring Grove and Clifton, Reading Road and Elsinore Place, Eastern Avenue and Bains Place, River Road and Lilienthal Street, Queen City and LaFeuille, Bridgetown Road and Harrison Avenue, St. Rt. 128 and St. Rt . 50, Colerain and Banning, Hamilton and Roosevelt, Reading Road and Seymour, Crescentville Road and Princeton/Glendale Road, Norwood Lateral and Section, Blue Ash Road and Sycamore Street, Madison Road and Ridge Road, Wooster Pike and Hutton Street, Kellogg Avenue and Wilmer Avenue and Beechmont Avenue and Eight Mile Road.

And that’s not all.

A photo of Fr. Valens Waldschmidt, OFM, will be part of the campaign’s TV blitz.

Profiles of Valens and Cyprian were featured in the November issue of the Catholic Telegraph.
