He was a runner for the Japanese mafia. Now he's a Catholic priest.

Stockbridge, Massachusetts, Oct 15, 2016 / 04:02 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- Fr. Donald Calloway could give St. Augustine a run for his money, in terms of dramatic conversion stories.

In a recent Vimeo video produced by Spirit Juice Studios and the Knights of Columbus, Fr. Calloway recalled his radical transformation from atheist, drug-addicted high school dropout to Catholic priest.

The child of a military family, Donald (his family called him Donnie), moved from Virginia to Southern California with his parents at the age of 10.

He was enticed by the lifestyle of Southern California, and by the age of 13, was living solely for pleasure, a pursuit that would eventually lead to a downward spiral landing him in rehab, jail, and with suicidal thoughts.
