Taught in the U.S. and in Nigeria for decades. Assigned 2005-2013 to the Redemptorist Worldwide Headquarters in Rome, Italy as an author and editor. Involved with Worldwide Marriage Encounter. Assigned for almost ten years, until 3/2024, to St. Alphonsus in New Orleans. Reportedly in 8/2024, Enderle was accused in a 2002 lawsuit of sexually abusing a boy over 20 years prior, while principal of a Redemptorist high school north of New Orleans. The boy was a student. The allegation against the boy came to light after a woman reported to the police in 3/2024 recent sexual assault against her by the priest. She also told the Archdiocese, which told her in late 4/2024 that Enderle had been transferred to a Redemptorist community and assisted living facility in Liguori, MO. Parishioners in New Orleans were not informed of the allegations nor of his transfer to St. Louis. Enderle denied all allegations.

Our Database of Publicly Accused does not state or imply that individuals facing allegations are guilty of a crime or liable for civil claims. The reports contained in the database are merely allegations. The U.S. legal system presumes that a person accused of or charged with a crime is innocent until proven guilty. Similarly, individuals who may be defendants in civil actions are presumed not to be liable for such claims unless a plaintiff proves otherwise. Admissions of guilt or liability are not typically a part of civil or private settlements. For more information, see our posting policy.
