Baptism - one of the sacraments, which relates a person to Christianity.Most people pass it in early childhood.Of course, the kids can not decide for themselves - to be baptized or not.Usually insist parents, grandparents, guardians or other close people.
Currently, baptism is also a fashionable trend.But we should not make a decision based only on this.It is better to wait until the child gets older and he will be able to choose - whether to pass the sacrament.
If the decision to hold the rite accepted, you think about how to baptize the child.We must carefully prepare the child for the sacrament.Pre-check with the kid mode.If baptism coincides with the meal, take with food.It is impossible that the child during the sacrament was hungry, so be sure to feed him before baptism.Bring a bottle and water.The kid should not feel any discomfort.
for the rite must-godmother and father.Approach to their choice of a special responsibility.It should be borne in mind that the Church holds the godparents duty of spiritual education of the kid.Therefore, it is not necessary to choose from mercantile objectives for the role of family and friends richer.
like a cross child correctly and whether it is possible to attend the sacrament of his mother?Priest after the birth of a baby should spend on it a special ceremony.If the mother has time to make it to the christening, it will be able to attend the sacrament.
Appearance godparents and parents should be properly.Each of them must be put on the pectoral cross.Women should wear a dress, which should cover the shoulders and knees.It is not recommended to wear pants to church.At the head is necessarily necessary to tie a scarf.Particular attention should be paid to the shoe.Of course, the church does not speak about the limitations with respect to it, but for practical reasons it is not necessary to wear high heels.Since the procedure for the baptism in the church usually lasts quite a long time, and at the hands of a baby, the uncomfortable shoes take extra trouble.Clothes men and women should be strict style and relaxing tones.Out of place in the church and bright make-up and a sharp smell of perfume.
rite of infant baptism is usually paid.The money to pay for his godfather.Another duty it is to buy underwear in the case of cross rite the boy.If you are initiated into the mystery of the girl, this concern goes to the godmother.Regardless of the sex of the child, she buys all the things for the ceremony.
Consider how to baptize the child, and what are the things needed for the ceremony.It has already been said about the pectoral cross.No matter from which it is made of metal.It is also necessary for baptism:
- a small icon of the saint, whose name is a child;
- two towels, one diaper;
- a special shirt for baptism.
advance take care of acquisition of these things.In the church, you can buy just the cross.But if you want it to be gold, get it better in the jewelry store.The church crosses of this metal are not usually sold.
will also need to buy candles.Find out in advance how much you need them.It is better to buy more candles than to suddenly distracted by the additional purchase.
Many parents think about how to baptize the child and to capture the event.Father react differently to photos and videos.Therefore it advised to discuss this issue with the priest.If you have received permission to film, do not be intrusive during the ceremony.Do not interfere with the priest and the rest of the audience, trying to capture the most successful process.
We looked at how to baptize the child, but after the ceremony also need to comply with certain rules.No need to celebrate the adoption of the sacraments, drinking alcohol.It is not welcomed by priests.Noisy celebration also unnecessary, because there was the birth of the spiritual life of the child.
