Diocese of Green Bay to remove Bishop Wycislo's name from cathedral

ALLOUEZ (WLUK) -- A former Green Bay Bishop's name will be removed from a center at St. Francis Xavier Cathedral.

According to a letter from Bishop David Ricken to Cathedral parishioners, The Bishop Wycislo Center will be renamed Cathedral Center.

The center, which sits north of the cathedral, was named after Bishop Aloysius Wycislo in June of 2004. He served as the eighth bishop of the Diocese of Green Bay from 1968 to 1983.

Ricken cites the reason of removal as part of the diocese's response to the clergy sexual abuse crisis.
