#BreakingNews Kirsten Powers of Fox News announces "I'm becoming Catholic!” - SHARE

Kirsten Powers has entered Catholic Church. Kirsten Powers, a USA Today columnist and contributor to Fox News, announced this at a live broadcast of “The Five” Friday, 10/9 saying, “Tomorrow night at 7 o’clock, I'm becoming Catholic!” Powers grew up in the Episcopal Church, and became an evangelical about 9 years ago, at Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York. She explained,“I began to read the Bible. My boyfriend would pray with me for God to reveal himself to me.” However, Powers felt no connection to God.   Powers thanked Father Jonathan Morris, pastor of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Church in the Bronx, on Twitter. In an interview with Christianity Today magazine she explained, "I grew up in the Episcopal Church in Alaska, but my belief was superficial and flimsy…." "Then one night in 2006, on a trip to Taiwan, I woke up in what felt like a strange cross between a dream and reality. Jesus came to me and said, “Here I am.” It felt so real." Kirsten A. Powers (born 1969) was Deputy Assistant U.S. Trade Representative for Public Affairs in the Clinton administration from 1993-1998. She also worked as press secretary, communications consultant and party consultant. She is columnist to USA Today, Newsweek and The Daily Beast, and a contributor on Fox News.
