Hi, guys —
Good evening.
By God's permission, I was just initiated into the Church this past Easter Vigil however during the baptismal ceremony, I unfortunately and inadvertently forgot my baptismal candle and therefore had to share the same one with a fellow catechumen.
- Is my Baptism still valid?
Thank you so much for your time, and God Bless you.

Anthony,
Yes! Have no worries. The candle part is not an essential part of Baptism. As long as water flows over you and the minister uses the words:
"I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit."
your Baptism is valid.
