Godparents

Meredith at The Key to the Door has done a lovely little series on godparents - Hooray for Godparents.

Go across and have a look at her posts:

#1 - A bit of intro about promises that godparents make

#2 - Four Ways Godparents can Bless their Godchildren. She lists: pray, celebrate significant moments, remember birthdays, and be a mentor.

#3 - Four Ways Godchildren can Bless their Godparents: pray, remember birthdays & Christmas, share news & encourage gratitude


I found it really helpful as Husband & I are godparents to 6 children/young adults & our children have 6 godparents between them. It's always good to think about how to care for our own godchildren and to encourage our children to care for their godparents.

Thanks Meredith!

    Thank YOU Wendy! It was great to have a think through the whole godparent thing. We have a couple of godchildren and we're pretty inconsistent with our godparenting so my lists certainly weren't coming out of personal experience - more a wish list!! Hoping it will soon be a real part of their and our experience.
