A retired Wisconsin priest has been removed from active ministry after a review of personnel files found inappropriate physical conduct from 43 years ago.
The Rev. Loren Nys, a Salvatorian priest serving at Saints Peter and Paul Parish in Kiel, will leave the Catholic parish and move to Milwaukee to live with other retired priests and brothers under supervision of the Salvatorian provincialate, the Salvatorians said Saturday in a news release.
The allegations against Nys were contained in two decades-old letters from parents that were discovered during a personnel review conducted as part of broader reform efforts in response to the Catholic clergy abuse scandal.
The Salvatorians said Nys’ physical contact, though not involving private parts, was inappropriate and was addressed at the time of the allegations.
