I have watched this shepherd faithfully tend to his flock young and old. The positive impact Fr. Steve had on the lives of countless students and parishioners should not be forsaken. It pains me to know the hurt this has brought to the the very people who have been counseled and supported by Father the most. I also pray for the young me who maybe feel a calling to the vocation while watch such unjust actions unfold before them. May also those holding power be unshackled by its grip.

Fr. Steve Emanuel is one of the finest human beings I have ever had the privilege of knowing. I would literally trust him with my life or anybody else's I loved. Get this incident behind him NOW & let him continue his life's mission without any more delay. He makes a profound difference in people's lives!

Father Steve has always acted with wisdom and discretion. He is the best teacher my children ever had, and it saddens me that we are being deprived of the gifts and talents God granted this wonderful priest.

Father Steve is a very good servant of God and is being persecuted for something he hasn’t done. I truly think the Archdiocese has a vendetta or some kind of score to settle. They should be ashamed.

I would hope you do the best thing for everyone and cancel the uncalled for evaluation and get Fr Steve back to his parish where he belongs!!!! In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen!!

Father Steve is a true blessing of a priest, he is the most spiritual God loving priest I have ever known. His faithfulness to his priesthood is beyond reproach and I urge the Archdiocese and Bishop to reinstate him fully, with all duties, as soon as possible.

Father Steve has helped me through the worst times of my life. I cannot imagine how drastically my life would be had Father Steve not been here for me. I urge you to reinstate him to full capacity.

Fr. Steve's deep understanding of our faith has helped me to become a better Catholic and guide me in the eyes of the Lord. I know he has help many over the years through tough times and would do anything to help anyone. He was at St. Marys. when I was in grade school and we always learned something when he came to class. He is well respected and well loved by this parish and so many others. He is a true shepherd and the kind of Priest this world and our church needs! Please let him be reinstated so he can continue to spread the word of God!

Fr. Steve helped me through a trying time a year and a half ago. I know first hand the positive impact he has on those who are struggling. I implore you to reinstate him to his ministry as soon as possible.
