EMERGENCY BAPTISM
It is possible to have an emergency baptism. This occurs when a person is near death and has not be baptised but would like to be.
Anyone can perform the ritual in an emergency. Through the use of water and the words : "I baptise you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy spirit".
Though these emergency baptisms are only where a person is near death or what the church calls "in danger of death".
