TO: Most Reverend Thomas G. Wenski, Archbishop of Miami
The Parishioners, Parents, and Friends of St. Rose of Lima petition you for the removal of Reverend Pedro M. Corces as Pastor.
Reverend Corces was appointed Pastor of St. Rose of Lima over four years ago. With every day that passes, the greatness that our parish and school community once had diminishes that much more due to the actions of our Pastor.
According to the “Dossier on the Improprieties of Father Pedro M. Corces And an Appeal to His Excellency Archbishop Thomas Wenski For Urgent Action”, Father Pedro has put “the children of the parish in grave danger”, "made a mockery of his vows of celibacy", “mocks and defies the Catholic religion”, and has "lied repeatedly to parishioners." It also says there are "troublesome red flags around Fr. Pedro's financials, putting the Parish's financials at risk."
We respectfully ask that Reverend Pedro M. Corces be removed as the Pastor of St. Rose of Lima, before any more damage is done to our parish and school community. It will only be then that we can heal and move on in the Catholic tradition of love, faith, and charity.

May God bless our cause, may God bless our Parish and School, and may God bless you.

Seeing this kind of momentum confirms that I am not the only one grieving for the future of our parish. It hurts to see the community I love suffer, but knowing so many of you feel the same pain gives me hope that change is possible.

To save the parish and school Fr. Pedro must step down. I along with my family will go to another parish if not, and we total together 16.
I cannot sit by and see St Rose go down the tube by losing our IHMs! Also, he never consulted anyone on this! I believe that he is very unhappy at St Rose anyway.
He must step down. He is causing a divide in a Parochial school. St Rose has had the reputation of being a unique family oriented school.
Archbishop - no donations to the ABCD until he is removed from St Rose of Lima. Please send him on a sabbatical. My family has pledged $200 a month for the last few years, but have decided to withhold it until action is taken from your office.
The IHM Sisters have helped watch over our daughters from Kinder to 8th grade- I'm horrified at the decision to let them go. Ashamed of our school and parish right now.
Only God knows that justice will be served on behalf of the honorable and great man that Fr. Pedro Corces is. Hate is very bad company and those supporting this evil defamation against Fr. Corces will realize sooner rather than later, that they were used for the obscure agenda of a minuscule group of people that for years have been trying to affect the institution of the Catholic Church. I am praying every day for each one of your souls so that Jesus wispers words of wisdom on you and help you to stop this madness. God bless you.
I support Fr. Pedro Corces and my Church of St. Rose. I do not know who they are this group. You do not see parents the horrible damage you are doing to a person and the Church? Nothing in life is eternal. Respect the administration of Fr. Pedro if he is doing changes this is because is better for your kids. But...to say what you are saying against him...this is not merciful...woow what kind of Human beings are you?

The parishioners have caught Father Pedro in multiple lies and have lost all confidence in his ethics and leadership abilities. Time to replace Fr. Pedro and send him to both remedial ethics & leadership training.
