The Rev. Michael Pfleger will return to St. Sabina parish on June 16, a parish official said.

The Rev. Michael Pfleger will return to St. Sabina parish on June 16.

Cardinal Francis George temporarily removed the outspoken priest from his South Side parish last week in the wake of comments Pfleger made about presidential candidate Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.)

On Sunday morning, pastoral associate Kimberly Lymore, said Pfleger will be permitted to return to his parish on June 16, a Monday. Lymore read a letter from Pfleger in which the priest said, "This has been a very painful time for me... Let this be a teaching moment for us to hear from the Lord."

Parishioners cheered and delivered a standing ovation in response.
