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.

“So things that you might have seen last year are absolutely coming back. We have free live music on the Riverwalk Common stage. We have a flower market with vendors selling fresh flowers, art, handmade goods, all of that really fun stuff. Then we also have Botanical Collective last year made this beautiful floral art installation that also acted as a photo op. This year it’s going to look a little different, so we’re really excited to see what they put together,” said Paige Hammond with the Milwaukee Public Market.
