It was announced that former British Prime Minister Tony Blair, converted to the Catholic faith during a Mass held on Friday night at a chapel in London, the Catholic Church said in a statement released after the fact.
"It can be confirmed that Tony Blair has been received into full communion with the Catholic church by Cardinal Cormac Murphy-O'Connor," the head of the church in England and Wales, the church said in the same statement.
Blair, who had long been a member of the Church of England, converted to Catholicism. Does this shock you? Please you? Upset you? How does it affect you?
