"For 48 years, the Rev. Bernard J. Campbell, OFM Cap., has ministered to the deaf, severely disabled and the incarcerated, and he’s done it with a sense of humor - and music.
"His ministry has spanned New Hampshire and Vermont, and included playing bass guitar for the severely disabled at Crotched Mountain Rehabilitation Center in Greenfield, celebrating Mass and conducting religion classes at the state prison for men in Concord and performing concerts for them on Memorial Day and Christmas with his jazz septet, "Preacher-Teacher Trio and Friends."
"Although he officially retired eight years ago, he continues his ministry today at age 80."
A recent New Hampshire Union Leader article profiled Father Campbell and his ministry.
