Kolpack was fired after allegations surfaced that she, among other things, encouraged non-Catholics to take communion in Catholic churches, believes in women's ordination and believes she can consecrate the Eucharist, a role reserved for ordained clergy.JSOnline
Kolpack said she may hold views contrary to Catholic teaching as a matter of conscience, but did not share them in her role as a pastoral associate or religious educator.
She was dismissed after a meeting with Morlino in which she refused to recant her thesis - written for her master's degree in divinity from Milwaukee's St. Francis de Sales Seminary - that challenged the church's noninclusive language in the Catholic Mass and its ban on women's ordination.
Kolpack has unsuccessfully appealed her dismissal twice to the Vatican.
