At what point do Roman Catholics accept Jesus Christ as their personal savior.?

First time it is up to them and not their parents is conformation which is around age 16-17

and adding on to the above question; How do they go about accepting Jesus as their Lord and Savior?

it isn't the same as it is with non-catholics. i think i can best explain it as catholics believe that our faith and love can and should continuously be deepened throughout our lives.

The first time is typically as an infant, when they're baptized, since infant baptism is the definitive act of salvation in Christ, without the necessity (or even the possibility) of any personal works, at all.

The next time is when they begin attending Sunday Mass, because salvation in Christ is what the Mass is all about.

At about the age of 8, Catholics receive the sacrament of the Eucharist for the first time, which is the real and substantial body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ, in sacramental form.

At around the age of 12 Catholics receive the sacrament of confirmation, which perfects the gifts of the Holy Spirit they received at baptism, and allows them to make the profession of faith that was made for them as an infant, their very own.

Catholics are required to attend Mass every Sunday, and they can also attend daily, if they so choose. Every Mass is centered on Jesus Christ and his saving work, in the form of the authentic Eucharist (holy communion).

Since holy communion in the Catholic Church is not merely symbolic, as it is in all the protestant denominations, but the real, substantial, and risen body, blood, soul and divinity of Jesus Christ, every Catholic can truly say that they regularly and repeatedly accept Jesus, their savior, both spiritually and physically, in the most intimate and complete way possible on this earth, from very early in life, until the moment of their death, or until Jesus comes again.

All of the other Catholic sacraments also provide ample opportunity to encounter Jesus Christ, to receive his freely given and superabundant grace, and to claim him as our very own.

I will give you my personal answer.

+ When I was baptized.
+ When I was confirmed.
+ Every time I confess my sins to a priest.
+ Every time I participate in the mass and receive communion.
+ Every day during my quiet time with the Lord.
+ Every year when I renew my baptismal vows.
And many other occasions when I have to remind myself that Jesus is my personal Lord and savior.
I hope my answer satisfies your curiosity.

Peace and blessings!
