While many of the sexual abuse claims plaguing the Catholic church involve dead or retired priests, the latest lawsuit names a man still wearing the collar.

On Monday, Father Antonio Marfori was served a summons at Elk River’s Church of Saint Andrew, where he works as a sacramental minister.

In 1978, Marfori was a religion teacher at Cathedral High School in St. Cloud. According to attorney Jeff Anderson, Marfori coerced a then 15-year-old student into oral sex while on “a trip,” telling him fellatio “is what they do in the seminary.”
