Father Ronald Leger is facing three sexual assault charges and one charge of sexual interference.
Two of the sexual assault charges date back to the 1980s.
The remaining two charges go back to 2002.
The 76-year-old priest used to head up Holy Family Parish on Archibald Street and founded Teen Stop Jeunesse.
The Archdiocese of St. Boniface said it has been cooperating with Winnipeg police since it learned about the investigation in February of 2014.
In an emailed statement, the Archdiocese expressed “deep sorrow to the victims who have come forward as well as to their families and the entire parish community of Holy Family who have been affected by the alleged actions by their former pastor.”
