Spring Priest Assignments Announced

The Archdiocese of Milwaukee has announced the new priest placements for 2025. Starting in mid-June, Fr. Andrew Linn, associate pastor of St. Anthony and St. Mary, will be taking on a new role as pastor for St Kilian (Hartford), St. Matthew (Neosho), and St. John (Rubicon). At the same time, St. Anthony and St. Mary parishes will welcome Fr. Matthew Ferch as shared associate pastor.

Pastoral needs in the Archdiocese of Milwaukee are assessed annually, and from these assessments, recommendations for priest placements for the upcoming year are made. The parishes learned in February that Fr. Linn would be leaving to take on more responsibilities as a pastor.

Farewell receptions for Fr. Linn, who has served our parishes for the past six years, will take place after Masses on the weekends of June 7 & 8 at St. Anthony, and June 14 & 15 at St. Mary.

Opportunities to meet the new associate will be shared as details are available.
