The first place to go is to a local Catholic parish and request an appointment to speak to a priest. He will be able to explain what needs to be done to become a full Catholic. For a well educated member of the Orthodox Church it should be a short and simple process as little divides the two Churches. The priest will just need to verify that you do accept the Catholic Church's views in these areas of contention.

If you were a Protestant it would be a totally different story as the breaches between Catholicism and Protestantism are many and often run very deep. That would require the person to enroll in RCIA (Rite of Christian Initiation for Adults) which is a lengthy process lasting several months.

How can you become an orthodox christian?

The Orthodox Church welcomes people of all backgrounds who wish to become members of the Eastern Orthodox Church. You do not need to be Greek and you do not need to speak Greek to become an Orthodox Christian. You will need to speak to an Orthodox priest or bishop first, and then they will advise you about the procedures and whether a period of catechism (instruction in the Faith) is required before a baptism can take place. You should telephone and then visit an Orthodox church to begin the process.


I was baptized a Roman Catholic but confirmed Orthodox and I married a Greek Orthodox can I have my nephew baptized in a Catholic Church?

Since you are confirmed Orthodox and married a Greek Orthodox, the Orthodox Church requires that any children you may have should be baptized Orthodox. Also, as an Orthodox, you are not allowed to baptize your nephew or any other person in a catholic church. From the Catholic point of view, unless your nephew is to be reared a Catholic, he may not be baptized in the Catholic Church. If he is to be reared Catholic, either by his parents or godparents, the Church will receive him. No you are GREEK orthodox u must not I reapeat not baptisma your child at a catholic church.

Are orthodox parishioners Catholic?

They depends on whether you meant to capitalize Orthodox or not. The Orthodox Church is not Catholic, they split from the Catholic Church officially in the 12th century. If you orthodox as believing in the Church doctrines, then that is the only kind of parishioner that is a real Catholic. Anyone who is not orthodox in his belief, is by definition, heterodox, otherwise known as a protestant, even if they still maintain nominal membership in the Catholic Church.
