Catholic convert
New papal adherent
A Catholic convert is someone who has joined the Roman Catholic Church from another faith tradition or from no religious background.
The term usually implies adult conversion rather than infant baptism, often involving formal instruction and the sacraments of initiation: She's a Catholic convert who came to the faith through her husband's family.
Converts sometimes display particular zeal for doctrine and tradition.
