    First, consult a local parish priest and arrange an initial meeting. The priest will probably discuss in great length your desire to become a Catholic. You will be instructed on what you need to do in order to begin the process.

  3. Step 3

    Normally, you will have to study a great deal and attend a set number of religion instructions. In addition, you will first be baptized a Catholic, followed by Confirmation. Even if you have previously been baptized; the Catholic Church commands that you are baptized a Catholic. Any prior baptism serves little to no significance.

    Finally, you can complete the process of becoming a Catholic within about 6 months. Once you receive the sacrament of Baptism and Confirmation you are then considered a true Catholic.
