Would you please explain surrogate baptism? First time I've ever heard of this? What church or religion practices this?
Thank you.

I think surrogate baptism is practiced by the LDS Church. I was raised Lutheran, and we didn't have any such practice or belief.

=====================================
That would be us Mormons or as we actually prefer, Latter-day Saints. But we didn't originate the practice. Paul mentioned it is his First Epistle to the Corinthians, chapter 15, verse 29.
Else what shall they do which are baptized for the dead, if the dead rise not at all? Why are they then baptized for the dead?
