Editing Infant baptism (section)

=== Conclusion ===
While baptism itself does not always include Eucharist, its communal context often ties to Eucharistic worship. For example: Roman Catholics conclude with the [[Lord's Prayer|Lord’s Prayer]] and a blessing, linking baptism to the broader liturgical life of the Church. Lutherans use a Baptismal Welcome, where the congregation affirms the newly baptized, often within a Eucharistic service. Episcopalians integrate baptism into the Baptismal Covenant, aligning it with congregational vows that precede shared Eucharist.<ref name=":2" /> In the Eastern Orthodox Church, baptism, chrismation, and first communion are typically administered together, even to infants, as baptism is seen as full incorporation into the Church’s life, granting immediate access to the sacraments.<ref name=":3" /> Though not explicitly part of the baptismal rubric in all traditions, baptism is understood as initiation into a Eucharistic community.<ref name=":2" />
