| The 1902 and 1908 PHC disciplines carry a ceremony for the baptism of infants.

The 1989 (PHC) minutes and 1989 (PHC) manual do not make reference to such a practice.. Support for the baptism of infant was particularly acute during successful (PHC) affiliation talks with the Methodist Pentecostal Church in Chile. | |||
