birth of a child - an important event in the family, but the parents will face a lot of difficulties before they will be able to breathe a sigh of relief.Education person includes a huge number of components, it is very important not just to teach your baby to read and write, give him an education, and to raise a decent member of society with strong moral and spiritual values.
In many ways the spiritual education of the child should take the godparents of the baby.Many people do not understand its task, the child christened.It's not the presents that they will now give his godson for birthdays, name days and other holidays, they are now responsible for the faith of the baby, his Christian upbringing.
sacrament of baptism is one of the most important events in a person's life and symbolizes purification and spiritual birth.The procedure itself requires a threefold immersion in water, as a symbol of three days, when Jesus was in the tomb before his resurrection happened.
Godparents, or, as they are called, the recipients, sureties for the baby and now it is the other parent, so the responsibility for Christian education lies precisely on their shoulders.
difficult to say what motives guided by parents when choosing godparents for their baby, but there are some limitations to be aware of in advance.For example, first of all the parents can not be godparents for a child, and can not take on such responsibilities unbelievers.Insane and morally fallen should not have the font becomes a baby, are not allowed and young children to the ceremony as godfather.The husband and wife who are married can not be godparents of one child, but it can be baptized brothers and sister (for example, a wife - a girl, and her husband - a boy).
general, following the canons of the Church, it is sufficient only one godfather to conduct baptisms.Godmother necessarily required in cases where the person being baptized - a girl and vice versa, the godfather of need, when the boy held the baptism.However, we usually choose two parents, because it is absolutely contrary to the church charter.
It is believed that the godfather takes over the costs of Baptism.He also has to buy a gift and cross his godson or goddaughter.If the child is still quite small, it is best to put a cross on the broad tape, the baby did not hurt the delicate skin on the neck.
godmother should take the baptismal purchase a set that includes a hat, shirt and kryzhmu (towel or diaper) - that it wrapped the baby after the fonts.
However, in today's realities do not always godparents have the financial ability to pay for all the conventions, the main thing - it is their presence and acceptance of responsibility for the further spiritual education of the child.Each church may require a mandatory set, which should be at the baptism of the infant.
Usually, baby christening gift for the recipients to buy together, the same cross and chain of silver or gold.
If you were among the invited guests at such a family holiday, it has traditionally as a gift you can present to a blanket for the baby, diapers, vests, clothing, etc.
It is said that when choosing godparents for a child, it is necessary to give preference to those who subsequently be able to give your child proper spiritual education, love and care.Parents should not seek material benefits in choosing godparents, guided by the level of financial security of applicants.Godparents - is first and foremost mentors who will help your child choose their own path and determine the priorities and values.
