Because Lent is oriented toward the celebration of the sacraments of initiation at Easter, care must be taken to maintain this central focus. Honoring the most ancient of customs, the baptism of infants should not take place during Lent except in case of emergency. Infant baptisms during the Easter Season follow the traditional custom of the Church. As such, the celebration of Confirmation and the Reception of First Communion are discouraged during Lent, bust most appropriate during the Easter Season. Celebrating the Sacrament of Marriage during Lent is also discouraged.
