The wife of a Church of Ireland bishop has converted to Catholicism in a move unprecedented in modern Irish church history.

African-born Anita Henderson — who is also the daughter of a Church of Ireland clergyman in Cork — was received into the Catholic Church at a Sunday evening prayer service in the private chapel of the Catholic Bishop of Killala, John Fleming.
