The RITE OF CHRISTIAN INITIATION OF ADULTS,  or RCIA  (also adapted for children)
As some might say, "Where to  go to find out about becoming Catholic."

Picture
Many Catholics experience the process of becoming a Roman Catholic in a very gradual way.  Often baptized as infants, they grow up in a Catholic home and over the years come to be fully initiated into the sacramental life of the church.

Others who come to us who are of catechetical age (7) or older - not baptized or are baptized in another tradition - now seek full communion (membership) in the Catholic Church. They are also received  through a gradual process.  The Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults (RCIA) is the name of the process used to fully initiate new members.  It is adapted for use with children.

  

 TAKE SOME TIME. The RCIA provides a way for the Catholic Church to warmly welcome newcomers who come with a variety of faith experiences.  It offers appropriate spiritual formation and education on a ongoing basis, and it introduces the candidate or catechumen to the worship of the Catholic Church through a gradual process.
