James Brady Callan (October 19, 1947 – December 13, 2024) was an American Roman Catholic priest[1] and one of the founders of the Spiritus Christi Community in Rochester, New York.
Background
Callan was born in Rochester, New York, on October 19, 1947.[2][3] He died there from cancer on December 13, 2024, at the age of 77.[3]
Excommunication
Callan was removed from his post as administrator at Corpus Christi church in Rochester after a number of complaints were made to the Vatican about his church's policies of blessing same-sex unions, inviting non-Catholics to receive communion, having a pastoral associate, Mary Ramerman, dress and act like a priest, and other issues. The Bishop of Rochester, Matthew Clark, reassigned Callan to a community in Elmira, New York. Callan was excommunicated after he began to attend and preside over services at Spiritus Christi, then known as the New Faith community.
