John Henry Newman: The Great Converter




Newman is called the greatest convert to the Catholic Church. He was responsible on his own for the conversion to the Catholic Church the following:


  • 636 English Nobleman.


    • 700 British Clergyman.


      • 1100 of their wives and children.


        • 700 professionals.


          • 612 of these young men became priests.


            • 164 of the women became nuns.
            • Newman was also a big influence in my decision to convert!
