Becoming a Catholic

A person is brought into full communion with the Catholic Church through reception of the three sacraments of Christian initiation—baptism, confirmation, and the Holy Eucharist—but the process by which one becomes a Catholic can take different forms.

How do I become Catholic?

Becoming a Catholic is a big step. It is something that involves both the head and the heart: It involves both learning about the faith and becoming committed to it. For each person it is a unique personal journey. 

As a start you might like to read Becoming Catholic. There are 18 lessons which can be downloaded. It is a good general introduction. 

To gain some insight into the Catholic Faith, the Catholic Enquiry Centre website can provide information and contacts as well as an introduction into the main elements of the Catholic faith.
