Conversion Of Paul The Apostle
The conversion of Paul the Apostle (also the Pauline conversion, Damascene conversion, Damascus Christophany and the "road to Damascus" event) was, according to the New Testament, an event in the life of Saul/ Paul the Apostle that led him to cease persecuting early Christians and to become a follower of Jesus.

The current archbishop is Justin Welby, who was enthroned at Canterbury Cathedral on 21 March 2013.
