Baptismal vows are the renunciations required of an adult candidate for baptism just before the sacrament is conferred.[1] In the case of an infant baptism they are given by the godparents (sponsors) or parents themselves. In many Christian denominations, the taking of baptismal vows incorporates a person into church membership.[2]
