OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — A priest in the Kansas City, Kan., diocese, who helps leads the Holy Spirit Catholic Church, 11300 W 103rd Street in Overland Park, has been removed from his associate pastor position after an accusation was made against him about inappropriate conduct. The accusations involve a minor/child.
Although the archdiocese does not mention in its statement (below) that the accusation and investigation involves sexual misconduct, at the end of its statement, the archdiocese does provide information for reporting sexual abuse by priests.
According to a FOX 4 viewer, the announcement about Fr. Scott Kallal’s removal was made this past weekend at the end of the weekly services.
Fr. Scott Kallal, 35, is also a member of the Apostles of the Interior Life, an order of priests whose primary ministry is to provide spiritual direction and help young people discern their vocations.
