Catholic AnswerBy speaking with a priest and expressing your interest in the Church. You will be assigned to RCIA classes usually starting in late summer, and you will be brought into full Communion with the Church at the Easter Vigil.To become Catholic:
1) First, find the nearest Catholic bookstore and buy a copy of The Catechism of the Catholic Church. It's a fat book, but if you're in doubt about anything that anyone tells you about the Catholic faith, you can find your answers in The Cathechism.
2) Next, go to the nearest Catholic church and ask someone involved in parish activities how to enroll in their RCIA or other program* that helps adults become Catholic. Be sure to mention if you have been baptized in the Episcopalian church.
3) Go to Mass consistently on Sundays and on other days as often as possible (but do not receive Communion until you have become Catholic). Also establish a time each and every day for prayer. If you do not pray, your faith will fail, guaranteed.
Good luck and God bless!
*note: Enrollment in RCIA and other such programs often occur in early fall.

Roman Catholic AnswerAn Episcopalian, regardless of his persuasion (high church or low church) is still a protestant, even if he likes the more Catholic ceremonies of the high church. Holy Communion in a Catholic Church is restricted to those who believe as a Catholic and are in a state of grace (have been baptised, and have been to confession). An Episcopalian is not Catholic, and does not believe as the Catholic Church does. If he does believe what the Catholic Church does, like everyone else, he must attend RCIA classes and be legitimately brought into the Church at the Easter Vigil. Having been a "high church" Episcopalian myself, I know of what I speak!
