Catholic News Herald - Former Lutheran pastor converts to Catholicism - Catholic News from around the country and world

Cates, now in his 70s, is a doctor and former Lutheran pastor who is an avid reader and researcher.

Cates has also been active in homeschooling initiatives for more than 35 years and runs Faith Christian Ministries, where he is known as "homeschool's education doctor."
