REACTION ON SOCIAL MEDIA

Hundreds of comments were left on a Facebook post by Monsignor Craig Harrison on Thursday in which he defended himself against the allegations of sexual misconduct.

Marjorie Holt: "You baptized my husband 18 years ago as an adult convert. You blessed our marriage. My adult children and grandchildren appreciate all you’ve done for us and continue to do. We stand behind you and know how filled with grace you are. This too, shall pass. Forgive them Father, for they know not what they do."

Donny Youngblood: "Remember, in our country, Innocent until PROVEN guilty!"

Mark Monreal: "Many prayers to you Monsignor Harrison. The truth always comes out and sets us free."

Katie Plaza: "I don't believe this for a minute ... never"

Carla Serban: "We are praying for you!!!! This is all so unbelievable. You have been there for our entire family in countless ways and we have always been so grateful for you. Stay strong and may God pour out his abundant Love over you. We love you!!"

Vince Guthrie: "I served as an altar server under (Father Craig) for most of my childhood/young adulthood. During that time I was always treated with love and respect from you! You taught me about responsibility and serving the church as well as the lord. Thoughts and prayers for you buddy."

Kathy Gargan: "My late mother would always tell us in times of trouble 'it's time to circle the wagons'. Monsignor Craig there are thousands of wagons protecting you with love and gratitude."
