Vatican announces replacement for Archbishop of Milwaukee


MILWAUKEE — Chicago Auxiliary Bishop Jeffrey S. Grob will succeed former Milwaukee Archbishop Jerome E. Listecki in 2025, the Vatican announced on Monday.

Listecki signed his letter of resignation in March of this year on his 75th birthday. Bishops must retire at the age of 75 due to laws governing the Catholic Church. The Vatican also announced they accepted the resignation.

Listecki had been Archbishop of Milwaukee for 14 years.

Now, those shoes will be filled by someone new.

Grob, who was born in Madison, Wisconsin, has served as the bishop of Abora and auxiliary of Chicago since Sept. 2020.

But he joined the archdiocese of Chicago long before that. He was ordained a priest there in 1992 and held many roles, including assistant chancellor, judge of the Court of Appeal of the Ecclesiastical Province of Chicago and more.

Prior to going to Chicago, Grob studied in Madison at Holy Name High School Seminary. Later in life, he earned a religious studies degree from Pontifical College Josephinum in Columbus, Ohio. Afterwards, he earned a Master of Divinity from Mundelein Seminary.

  • The Milwaukee Wave will face the San Diego Sockers in the Major Arena Soccer League championship series.
  • The Wave will host Game 1 on Wednesday, April 22, with the series then moving to California.
  • Milwaukee advanced to the finals after eliminating the Baltimore Blast.

The Milwaukee Wave had been in the awkward position of trying to sell tickets to the MASL championship series without knowing when it would actually host a game.

The questions were answered late April 19, when the San Diego Sockers beat the St. Louis Ambush in the other semifinal in overtime. Their series didn’t even start until four days after the Wave eliminated the Baltimore Blast with victories in a regulation Game 2 and knockout Game 3 at the UWM Panther Arena.

Now the finals are set for two of the most decorated teams in arena soccer.

Three versions of the Sockers have totaled 16 championships in various indoor league with the latest iteration founded in 2009 owning six of those. The Wave has seven.

First-year Wave head coach Marcio Leite has won titles with both franchises.
