After a long and very public journey of searching, blogger Al Kimel, aka The Pontificator, a now former Episcopalian priest, has finally joined the Catholic Church. As an Episcopalian, he was active in traditional and catholic minded circles, even helping to write the Baltimore Declaration which repudiated certain heretical influences within the Episcopal Church. Al Kimel has taken the path followed by many including his influence John Henry Newman. He was a big influence on my journey to the Catholic Church. Al, welcome to the Church!
