The Rite of Baptism in most Christian churches involves Holy (blessed) Water and Holy (blessed) Water. Some denominations use springs or streams, or even a bathtub filled with water--these are blessed by the clergy just before the Baptism. Full immersion (indoor or outdoor) for adult Baptism is practiced in many denominations; other denominations use a Baptismal font (especially for infant Baptism) or sprinkling of Holy Water on the person's forehead.

For example, a disabled child or bedridden adult would not be denied Baptism just because they cannot be dunked or immersed in water. The Rite of Baptism is not to exclude, but to include people into the Family of God.
