Fr. Bill will succeed Fr. Steve Dumais, who will complete 2 three-year terms on June 30. Fr. Steve will succeed Fr. Greg Fishel, who has been missioned to St. John Bosco Parish in Chicago, where he has served on an earlier assignment.
In effect Fr. Greg replaces Fr. Steve, who has been in Chicago for the past couple of years. Fr. Bill has been master of novices for the U.S. provinces since 2003 (in New York City, Port Chester, and presently Rosemead, Calif.). He served earlier as director in Tampa and Paterson.
