Becoming a Catholic is one of the most profound and joyous experiences of life. 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.
Those who have been validly baptized outside the Catholic Church become Catholics by making a profession of the Catholic faith and being formally received into the Church. This is normally followed immediately by Confirmation and the Eucharist.
Before a person is ready to be received into the Catholic Church, whether by baptism or by profession of faith, preparation is necessary. For adults and children who have reached the age of reason (age seven), entrance into the Church is governed by the Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults (RCIA).

Children who have reached the age of reason can receive the sacraments of initiation through an adapted form of the RCIA process. For more information about this process, click here.
