The sacrament of baptism can be administered by absolutely anyone provided they pour water so that it comes into contact with the person being baptized and say, "I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost." Even if the person administering baptism does not understand the import of his actions, the baptism is valid, for it is efficacious through the merits of Christ and the minister's intention is supplied by the Church, whose sacrament it is.This depends upon the policy of the local church and its denomination. Generally, it is a properly ordained pastor who administers baptism. Youth leaders, church elders, etc. are not permitted to baptize in most churches.
