Hi Di, Tomi, There is also a difference in the way that baptisms are carried out. Whereas Anglicans, and several other denominations merely sprinkle water on the head, Baptists are immersed in water completely, believing that that was the way it was done in biblical times. I've known some Anglicans being baptised in Baptist Churches when they become adults, but staying with their own Church.
