Conditional baptism
open-in-new
<p>A conditional baptism is a <a href="/facts/Baptism/wEY6gtGA">baptism</a> performed in such a way as to only be effective if the person is not already baptized. In a conditional baptism, the minister of the sacrament says: </p> <blockquote><p>"If you are not yet baptized, I baptize you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."</p></blockquote>
