All quotes are from the Catechism of the Catholic Church: 2522 Modesty protects the mystery of persons and their love. It encourages patience and moderation in loving relationships; it requires that the conditions for the definitive giving and commitment of man and woman to one another be fulfilled. Modesty is decency. It inspires one's choice of clothing. It keeps silence or reserve where there is evident risk of unhealthy curiosity. It is discreet. 2524 ... Teaching modesty to children and adolescents means awakening in them respect for the human person.

736 By this power [the charity of the Holy Spirit] of the Spirit, God's children can bear much fruit. He who has grafted us onto the true vine will make us bear "the fruit of the Spirit: . . . love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control." (Gal 5:22-23) "We live by the Spirit"; the more we renounce ourselves, the more we "walk by the Spirit." (Gal 5:25; cf. Mt 16:24-26)

Through the Holy Spirit we are restored to paradise, led back to the Kingdom of heaven, and adopted as children, given confidence to call God "Father" and to share in Christ's grace, called children of light and given a share in eternal glory.

Of course. Catholic means "universal", and therefore, all religions or non religious are completely welcome to the Church at any time. If in doubt ask the clergy representative at the church. There may be areas of the church (e.g. the sanctuary) or ceremony (e.g. receiving a host) that are off limits to non-members.
