Retired Presbyterian pastor Norman McCrummen: Why I became a Catholic

One of the Men of St. Joseph at St. Ignatius in Mobile, AL, Norman McCrummen, is a new Catholic, but a long time Christian. AL.com’s Carol McPhail recently interviewed Dr. McCrummen:

“In June 2011, the last time we talked to the Norman H. McCrummen III, he was retiring from Spring Hill Presbyterian Church (USA) in Mobile, at that time the largest congregation among 28 in the Presbytery of South Alabama. Today, McCrummen is a layman. What’s more, to the shock of many in the community, he is also a Catholic.

“Three months after his retirement as pastor, McCrummen was accepted into full communion with the Catholic Church. He sat down with us recently to talk about his faith today and what compelled him to leave Protestantism – to “swim the Tiber,” as he puts it.

“How did a former Presbyterian minister become Catholic?”
