IV. Who can Receive Baptism?
1252
The
practice of infant Baptism is an immemorial tradition of the Church. There is
explicit testimony to this practice from the second century on, and it is quite
possible that, from the beginning of the apostolic preaching, when whole
“households” received baptism, infants may also have been
baptized.53
