Since a baby’s christening or baptism is such a special event, you might want to consider giving a gift that will become a treasured memory for years to come.  A personalized gift is a great choice since it will be engraved with the baby's name and the date. This is a terrific way for the baby to always remember when they became a member of God's family on their baptismal day.
