Aspersion, in a religious context, is the act of sprinkling with water, especially holy water. Aspersion is a method used in baptism as an alternative to immersion or affusion. The word is formed of the Latin aspergere, 'to sprinkle', of ad, 'to', and spargo, 'I scatter'. In addition, aspersion is performed as part of certain rites to remind people of their baptism, such as the renewal of baptismal vows performed by the Roman Catholic Church on Easter.

  • Aspersão - termo derivado do latim aspersione; s.f. , acto ou efeito de aspergir, borrifar ou respingar. Na prática, é muito similar à efusão, pois a intenção é derramar água sobre o batizando. No Batismo por aspersão a água é derramada sobre a cabeça do batizando. Esta forma é adotada por algumas igrejas cristãs, em especial a Igreja Católica e os primeiros movimentos protestantes surgidas com a Reforma, tais como o Luteranismo, o Anglicanismo, o Presbiterianismo, o Congregacionalismo e a Igreja Metodista do Brasil.
