The Rev. Vincent T. Freeh has been on a mission for 60 years since he became an ordained priest in 1959. It was then that he declared his faithfulness to the Missionaries of the Sacred Heart.

The priest and missionary, known casually as “Father Vince” and who served as pastor at Our Lady of Sacred Heat parish in Watertown from 1988 to 1997, is also a Renaissance Man.
