Dear Ken,
Basically, you go to your local
parish and tell the priest there
you want to convert. If you are not
baptized, you will go through a program
called the Rite of Christian Initiation
of Adults (RCIA) and become a catechumen.
This involves taking classes and
participating in certain rites. That
will take the better part of a year
and end in your Baptism, Confirmation,
and receiving the Eucharist at Easter
Vigil Mass.
If you are baptized, you are called
a candidate and things are
a bit looser but usually they still
send you through RCIA classes, though
technically you have a right to be
instructed in another way.
