The priest come (through) her village irregular

But Beatriz had never made confession before. In her village, the priest came through irregularly, only when his schedule permitted it.

Source: Bel Canto

Would you please tell me if it is wrong or alters the meaning if "came into irregularly" is used instead of "came through irregularly". Thanks

Thanks.

Does "through" emphasize that the priest moved from one side to another side of the valley?
