Hello, my name is Bill Frantz and I am the Pastoral Associate at St. Veronica Parish.  This is my seventh year at St. Veronica, and I feel truly blessed to be part of this great parish.

As the Pastoral Associate at St. Veronica I oversee all facets of Faith Formation in the parish, direct the development of Small Groups, Parish Renewal and Youth Ministry.  I also serve as staff liaison to the Faith Formation Commission, and oversee the Coordinator for Children's Faith Formation and the Coordinator for RCIA.

I have been in parish ministry for 29 years.  I have been a Pastoral Associate, a Business, Manager, a Parish Administrator, and a Director of Religious Education.  I hold a bachelor's degree in Psychology  and a Masters degree in Theology from the University of Dayton. In 2012, I completed a Certificate in Pastoral Administration from the Athenaeum of Ohio.  I am an adjunct professor at the Athenaeum of Ohio in the Lay Pastoral Ministry Program (LPMP).

I grew up in Sidney, Ohio and attended Holy Angels grade school and Lehman Catholic High School.  I am married to Jane, my wife, best friend and gift from God for 28 years.  We have 3 children.  Jacob who is in his third year of teaching at Christian County High School in Hopkinsville, KY.  Lillian, a senior at the University of Kentucky, and Katherine, a senior at Holy Cross High School in Covington, KY.

I live in Taylor Mill, KY and my family and I are parishioners at St. Francis De Sales Parish in East Walnut Hills.

In my free time I like to golf, cook, read, hang out with my family, and root for FC Cincinnati.

My dream for St. Veronica Parish is to become a vibrant parish, filled with people seeking to become intentional disciples of Jesus Christ as we live, teach and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
