Renewal of Baptismal Vows in Water Sample Clauses

Renewal of Baptismal Vows in Water. For people who have been previously baptised and who come to a new faith, the church has a service of Renewal of Baptismal Vows in Water, which was allowed by the diocesan Xxxxxx (and the first time it was done, it was attended by the Suffragan Xxxxxx who was there to conduct an Anglican Confirmation at the same service). This ceremony is undertaken in a way to make it clearly differentiated from a Baptism, even though it has so far always included full immersion. Apart from the form of words used, the distinctions are (1) the prayers and immersion are not performed by the Minister, who remains out of the water, and (2) the immersion is “forwards” rather than “backwards”. The issue of re-baptism was debated by a very full church meeting, and the outcome was the decision to avoid it if at all possible. The main reason behind this decision was the desire to affirm those members of the church who continue to experience the validity and effectiveness of their Infant Baptism. On one occasion a member of the congregation expressed a desire for re-baptism, and was arranging for this to happen elsewhere. Happily, our service of Renewal of Baptismal Vows in Water was chosen in the end, and was ultimately understood as preferable to a re-baptism.
