{{stub}}<br>'''Exorcism''' is the rite of [[prayer]] which expels [[demon]]s from a person or physical object. The most common use of exorcism in the Church is at the reception of a [[catechumen]], which is most often included at the beginning of the [[baptism]]al rite. An exorcism may also be performed if it is believed that a person is suffering from demonic influence.
