[quote=Anonymous]I don’t know that just going to mass is the best way to see if you are interested in Catholicism, and you will never become a member by only doing that.  In order to join the Catholic Church, you have to go through a series of classes and sacraments.  If you are born into the church, you do then during childhood.  If you are an adult converting, then you usually do then in n adult RCIA class.  
  If you go to the website, there will be a number for the parish office.  The secretary there can put you in touch with whoever is in charge of adult religious formation and RCIA classes.  That person will very likely be able to point you in the best direction to learn more about the catholic faith and see if you are interested in converting.  Usually, this will be a series of small group discussions that both Catholics and people considering converting participate in.  Our parish gives a discount at the school if you go, so these are well attended, and not necessarily by die hard believers.  
Anyway, that is where I would start.  Call the parish office and ask who to contact about RCIA.  That person will be able to point you in the best direction to learn more about the Catholic Church.  [/quote]
