Bishop James P. Powers announced that Fr. David Neuschwander will fill the Director of Vocations and Seminarians role for the Diocese of Superior as of Jan. 1. He replaces Fr. Tommy Thompson, who will step back after serving as director for 15 years.
Fr. Neuschwander will remain pastor of the Hayward Area Catholic Churches, since the vocations team model enables priests to actively serve as pastors while supporting seminarians and promoting priestly vocations for the future.
Fr. Neuschwander has been a part of the vocations team under Fr. Thompson’s leadership for the past nine years and is excited to continue serving current and future seminarians and discerners.
As vocations director, he will lead the team, assisted by Fr. John Anderson (New Richmond), Fr. Adam Laski (Rice Lake), Fr. Patrick McConnell (Medford), Fr. Andrew Ricci (Superior), Fr. Tommy Thomspon (Diocese of Superior) and Christine Newkirk (Diocesan Director of Ecclesial Ministries).
