Fr. Jonathan Duncan: Former Baptist, Pentecostal and Episcopal

When Fr. Jonathan Duncan was born, his family was Missionary Baptist, but by the time he was in school, they had become Assemblies of God, and his dad was a pastor. After scandals involving his dad’s leadership, his family got out of active ministry, but Fr. Duncan was still interested in faith, and found a home in a local Episcopal congregation. When he felt a call to ministry, he was originally ordained an Episcopal priest, but the question of authority troubled him. Eventually, he became convinced of the truth of the Catholic faith, and became a priest through the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter.
