Groppi set Milwaukee on its ear by leading marches for open housing here in the 60s and had said he planned to meet with Archbishop William E. Cousins about his marriage. His marriage was announced Wednesday and soon afterward the chancery here said that Groppi had been automatically excommunicated for marrying because he was still a priest.

"I don't think that's possible. I am willing to submit to the church procedure," Groppi had said previously. He added he was happy about his decision though he will miss the active priesthood. "I think I can serve better as a married man. This action has given both of us much peace.

We have made our mutual love known publicly," Groppi said. He said he has known his bride, who is 30, for about 10 years and met her during the years he was an activist priest. "Peggy has gone through the protest movement with me for 10 years and we are very much in love," said Groppi. He added that "we want to stay in the Catholic Church" and that they wanted to be married in a church ceremony. The excommunication, however, cuts off Groppi from receiving the sacraments of the church, including marriage.
