Bishop Burbidge, Bring Father Escalante back to Saint Francis de Sales Parish NOW

Such a shame that this dear man's reputation has been sullied. He is a wonderful man!

Please do the right thing and return Father to our parish

Just do the right thing! Please bring Fr. Escalante back to where he belongs, to his home parish.

Your Excellency: After determining that my brother, Father Ronald Escalante, was a victim of a malicious lie, please restore his position as pastor of Saint Francis de Sales, so that he may resume his duties of taking care of the spiritual welfare of his parishioners and future converts and visitors to his parish. Sincerely, Roland Escalante, Jr.

Please bring our priest back!

My Bishop, please bring our beloved pastor back! He has suffered beyond a point that we would cruelty Such a minor offense that turns out not even to be true. Please be a shepherd and lead him back!

My Prayers for Fr. Escalates return.

Please bring Father Escalante back as soon as possible as the parish is not the same without him. God bless, Natalia.

Father Escalante is in the top five priests I have ever known in my 77 years. He is always gracious giving and humble to all.

Bring Father back! This decision affects every priest in our diocese and beyond. Let’s not set a precedent of he said she said get you ripped from your church

We miss Father Escalante! This has been the act of the devil and we will continue to pray for the Diocese to finally correct their mistake and do the right thing.

Our parish needs Father Escalante. I pray the Diocese will have the courage and fortitude to make a just decision and not reward a few wicked and misguided individuals who have conspired to ruin a truly good man.

Please bring our pastor home.

He was found innocent by the POLICE of these false allegations months ago... Hasn’t this man been through enough? Let him come back!

Please reinstate this holy man!

Please don’t let evil win

Please restore Fr. Escalante to his rightful place as pastor of Saint Francis de Sales Catholic Church in Purcellville as soon as possible.

God bless Fr. Escalante.

I stand with Fr. Escalante and I beg for your support of his vocation and reinstatement as pastor to St. Francis de Sales in Purcellville.

Our church is not the same without Father Escalante in the building. Please bring Father Escalante back or provide our Parish with answers as to WHY this is taking so long.
