Well the most important person in the story who is converted to Christianity from Ibo, is Nwoye. Many other members of the Ibo culture are also converted, however, they do not play a significant role in the story. These people only help symbolize that the Ibo culture is falling apart, along with Okonkwo's life.
Nwoye converted to Christianity in "Things Fall Apart" because he found the Christian message appealing and saw it as a way to break free from the strict traditional values of his Igbo culture. The arrival of the missionaries exposed him to a new way of thinking and a sense of belonging that he did not find in his own community. Ultimately, Nwoye found solace and acceptance in Christianity, which provided him with a sense of identity and purpose.
There are multiple reasons:
1. Nwoye consistently had a personality conflict with his father Okonkwo. Okonkwo strongly represented the old ways, so Nwoye is attracted to the Christian faith.
2. Nwoye maintains doubts of the old rules and old ways of the tribe, possibly seeing some of them as dated. In particular, are the killing of twins, and the murder of Ikemefuna.
3. He is attracted to stories, particularly in the style told by his mother and classified as effeminate by his tribe. The Christians have a wealth of stories, but do not look down on any of the stories as being effeminate, (a challenge to one's manhood). In such a way, Nwoye is more able to fit in with the Christians.
4. The Christians attract him and others by not looking down on them for reasons the tribe might.
5. His father Okonkwo is too harsh on him and beats him.
They were called many things including mad, crazy, useless, excretement efulefu, worthless.

Yes, Nwoye is a boy in Things Fall Apart.
Nwoye is in one metaphor represented by cold lifeless ash.
The first people converted to Christianity in Umuofia were Nwoye and his mother, Ekwefi, in Chinua Achebe's novel "Things Fall Apart." Nwoye's conversion strained his relationship with his father, Okonkwo, who held traditional beliefs and values.
Okonkwo chokes Nwoye. Be careful of your misplaced modifiers.

Western culture had a significant impact on Nwoye in "Things Fall Apart" by Chinua Achebe, as he became disillusioned with his father's traditions and converted to Christianity. The arrival of missionaries introduced Nwoye to a new set of beliefs and values that resonated with him, leading to his rejection of his Igbo heritage and eventual estrangement from his family and community. The influence of Western culture on Nwoye ultimately resulted in his transformation and redefinition of his identity.

Nwoye and his father never had a very good relationship, so that could have had an effect on Nwoye's childhood. It's never completely specified in the book.
Okonkwo disowns Nwoye when he converts to Christianity. Okonwko originally assaults Nwoye when told of Nwoye's association with the Christians, resulting in Nwoye leaving the compound and joining the Christians.
Nwoye had converted to Christianity, forsaking the gods of his father and his father before him.
This depends on what version of the book you have. It could be page 20.
