baptism
practice in the eastern orthodox church for converts from other communions is not uniform. however, generally baptisms performed in the name of the holy trinity are accepted by the orthodox christian church. if a convert has not received the sacrament (mysterion) of baptism, he or she must be baptised in the name of the holy trinity before they may enter into communion with the orthodox church. if he has been baptized in another christian confession (other than orthodox christianity) his previous baptism is considered retroactively filled with grace by chrismation or, in rare circumstances, confession of faith alone as long as the baptism was done in the name of the holy trinity (father, son and holy spirit). the exact procedure is dependent on local canons and is the subject of some controversy.
