GRAND HAVEN, Mich. (WZZM) -- A Catholic priest serving a lakeshore parish is on leave for six months.
A spokesman for the Diocese of Grand Rapids says Fr. William Langlois is taking leave from his duties at St. Patrick-St. Anthony Parish for having an inappropriate, but not illegal, relationship with a woman. The spokesman said the leave is an opportunity to heal.
The diocese describes Fr. Langlois as a very popular priest, and leaders hope he returns to his duties after his leave.
Parishioners learned of the leave at last weekend's Masses.
