The children were said to be aged between 10 and 13 when the alleged offences took place in the 1980s.
Father Dennis Finbow, 74, who now lives in Martlesham, Suffolk, denies the charges.
His trial began on Tuesday at Huntingdon Crown Court.

During his time in Cambridgeshire, Fr Finbow held posts at Littlehey prison, St Joseph’s Church in St Neots and at Dogsthorpe, Peterborough.
The trial was told by the prosecution that when Fr Finbow was interviewed by police he described the allegations as nonsense and “a fabrication”.
The trial continues.
