 Q.What should be done about unbaptized children who are of catechetical age and wish to be baptized?
 
 A.The full Rite of Christian Initiation is to be celebrated after the proper catechesis is completed. The children will receive the sacrament of baptism and the priest who baptizes them also will confer confirmation. Confirmation is not deferred to a later date. The children will participate in the Liturgy of the Eucharist with reception of Communion for the first time.
