The holiday of Baptism is celebrated by all Orthodox Christians on January 19. On this day, there is a tradition to dip three times into a hole with ice-cold water. Baptism is the first and most important Christian sacrament. It is recognized by all Christian denominations, although not in the same sense. Through baptism, a person becomes a member of the Church. Only after baptism is a person given the opportunity to participate in all the other sacraments of the Church, and above all, in the Eucharist. The sacrament of baptism consists either in immersion (single or triple - depending on the confession) of a person in water, or in dousing a person who receives baptism, with the prayer pronounced by the priest.
