Bless the child with thoughtful gifts on the day of christening
1. C hristening ceremonies are associated with the name giving
ceremony of a child. It is the day a child is given a name in the
house of the lord. However at times, the baptism and
christening ceremony of a child can be carried out together.
The christening of a child is a private affair and only close relatives and
friends are invited to the ceremony. The christening ceremony takes
place in church, followed by a small party at home. If you are invited to
such a party it is only natural for you to take along a gift. The nature of
the gift changes along with your relationship with the child being
christened. If you are a close relative or the child’s godparents of the
child, it is natural for you to buy an expensive gift for the bundle of joy.
