Understanding Your Child's Christening Baptism Ceremony and Celebration
A Baptism, usually for an infant baby, commonly referred to as a Christening in some religions, is a very significant and important religious occasion for the family. The Baptismal ceremony usually involves the parents of the infant as well as the godparents who have been selected. The actual Baptism ceremony is conducted during the Sunday church service before the entire congregation and can include the Baptism of several people during the same service. The priest will bless the child and sprinkles Holy Water on his head to symbolize his entrance into God's covenant.For the religious ceremony, the baby boy will wear an appropriate suit while the baby girl will wear a baptismal gown. These dresses and suits are usually kept as a family heirloom and probably have been worn by family members before them. It is not uncommon for a mother to use her wedding gown to create her baby girl's Baptism gown. This adds another layer to the familial importance of the ceremony. Usually, the parents will prepare and send out custom Baptism invitation cards with the Baptismal suit or gown on them.
