Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Guide For Godparents is an aid for pastors who deal with ministering to a parade in our constantly moving parish populations. Often godparents arrive from out of town or state. The parents themselves move more often today than ever before in our society. With this book you will cover the theological basics of baptism and the spiritual life in a way that is simple and friendly without being simplistic or condescending. The spiritual basis of the book is suited to the busy couples that the church sees coming for their spiritual nurture and the baptism of their children. The content of this book will not scare off these couples -- parents and godparents -- returning to their church. Peter C. Garrison is pastor of Good Shepherd Lutheran Church in Burlingame, California. His previously published CSS books are Pastoral Pitfalls and Witnesses To The Cross.

Book Synopsis Someone to Watch Over Me by : Peter Hinton
Download or read book Someone to Watch Over Me written by Peter Hinton and published by Arima Pub. This book was released on 2006-01 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In many countries there are more godparents in existence than parents. Year after year hundreds of thousands of responsible adults get asked to become godparents and accept without quite knowing what exactly is expected of them and how they might best try and fulfil the role. Is it therefore any surprise that most godparents don't feel they do the job very well and the collective noun appears to be a "guilt" of godparents?Someone to Watch Over Me sets out to explain where the tradition of godparents comes from, what is involved in being a godparent today, how parents should choose godparents for their children and provides ideas and resources for how godparents can perform the role better. Desmond Tutu in the foreword says, "Godparents form part of the community looking to guard the child and help him or her realise their full potential."The book clearly demonstrates that godparents can be from religious, agnostic or atheist backgrounds and that the real key lies in a commitment to nurture the development of the child.The decline of extended families, increased social mobility, breakdown of social networks, frequent break-up of marriages etc. leads to a greater need for godparents in the life of a child than ever before. Underlying this book is the strong belief held by the authors that godparenting is an enriching aspect of life today and that all children would benefit from having active and interested godparents.

In this very special collection he invites us to share in fifteen letters to sent to his godson, Laurence Wells. Each letter, sent on the anniversary of Laurence’s baptism every year, distills years of self-reflection and religious thinking into heartfelt notes packed with wit, warmth and verve. The letters explore what makes a happy, fulfilled life: kindness, courage, humility, joy, friendship, simplicity, humour, generosity and faith. An introduction by Samuel Wells—Laurence’s father—tells the story behind these letters and offers insight into being a godparent.

Book Synopsis Together at Baptism by : Robert M. Hamma
Download or read book Together at Baptism written by Robert M. Hamma and published by Ave Maria Press. This book was released on 2020-03-06 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth edition of the bestselling booklet Together at Baptism includes texts from the new English translation of TheOrder of Baptism of Children, which must be used by parishes in the United States beginning on April 12, 2020, but may be used as early as February 2, 2020. Author Robert M. Hamma helps parents understand the sacrament with brief commentaries that provide insight not only on the celebration of Baptism but also on handing on the Catholic faith to their children in the midst of everyday life. Together at Baptism offers parish staff a practical, concise tool to help prepare parents and godparents for the Baptism of a child. It offers both spiritual support and important information about the sacrament. The booklet contains twenty-six brief commentaries by Robert M. Hamma on the essential elements and liturgical texts of TheOrder of Baptism of Children. Parents will learn about their role as first witnesses to the faith, the essential support of godparents, the distinctively Catholic understanding of the sacrament, and the joys and challenges of lifelong commitment to the faith. The familiar and popular features of earlier editions of Together at Baptism remain in place, but have been updated to meet the realities of today’s Catholic families, including shifting family structures, the influences of digital distractions on family life, and the need for basic education about the faith. The words of the baptismal celebration and the three-fold immersion in or pouring on of holy water are the same, but many of the greetings, prayers, and instructions of the liturgy have subtle, important changes shifting the tone to the more formal language of the newest edition of the Roman Missal. These changes affect such elements as: the greeting for the Rite of Receiving the Child; text of the Renunciation of Sin and Profession of Faith by parents and godparents; the post-baptismal Explanatory Rites—the Anointing after Baptism, Clothing with the White Garment, Handing on of a Lighted Candle, and the Ephphatha (be opened prayer); and the formulas for the Prayer of the Faithful. The booklet also contains all the Lectionary readings assigned for the celebration of Baptism, the alternate prayer texts provided by The Order of Baptism of Children, and a selection sheet for parents invited to choose readings, prayers, and other texts for the liturgy.
