He is in an ongoing relationship of over 10 years duration with one woman, her children have watched the inappropriate and hypocritical behavior for that long. Three out of five of the kids want nothing to do with the RC, two out of five have had severe emotional problems.\u00a0<\/em>The bishop KNOWS he has a problem on his hands.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Fr. Oelrich shares many lessons in this article. One of the most poignant is, \u201cI don\u2019t do it alone. I can\u2019t do it alone. We\u2013\u2013the staff, lay leaders, parishioners\u2013\u2013are in this together. And what we do ultimately will be judged by how the Gospel prospers among us and equips us for discipleship in the world.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

At the start of June 1992 Father Tony Oelrich, newly ordained, replaced Father Taufen. [Editor\u2019s note: I wrestle with whether to call him \u201cFather Tony\u201d (as he was known to parishioners) in this narrative or simply \u201cOelrich\u201d\u2014as a tacit way of dismissing his clergy status. He seemingly dismissed the sanctity of his vows almost immediately, but I will refer to him as \u201cFather Tony\u201d nonetheless, because using his priestly title here makes the contradiction between his priestly office and vows and his repeated behavior unbearable\u2014as it should be.] \u00a0–\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
