From Tennesee-
A conservative Episcopal priest, who is a
top administrator in the Tennessee diocese, is leaving the church
to become a Roman Catholic.
Andrew Petiprin recently
announced his plans to change his religious tradition and resign his
post as the Episcopal diocese’s canon to the ordinary. He wraps up his
job on New Year’s Eve, and Petiprin and his family will start 2019 in
the Catholic Church.
“I’m not really running away from the Episcopal Church, but running toward the Catholic Church,” Petiprin said in an interview.
Since June 2017, Petiprin has worked alongside Bishop John Bauerschmidt, helping him with the administration of the Episcopal Diocese of Tennessee, which covers much of Middle Tennessee.
Petriprin said he started the job excited about the chance to
influence the future of the Episcopal Church, but it became clear
several months ago that God was calling him to Catholicism.More here-
