Baptism invitations are mailed out on the occasion of a pivotal event in a child’s life.  When an infant is formally introduced to the church, he or she will sometimes be baptized by the preacher, in water, or just sprinkled lightly with water, in full view of the whole congregation.  The parents, audience, and pastor, preacher, or minister are all involved, and interact within, the baptism’s proceedings.  Replies, requests, and answers are all stated formally, according to church by-laws and denominational practices.
