If there is a local Catholic church in town, they usually have a small book shop/gift store. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift#post-237737 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 09:36:50 +0000 CarrieLouWho 237737@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Thanks @JenniMac!!!!!!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift#post-237729 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 09:33:54 +0000 singingbee 237729@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think so. I'm Catholic so I don't really think twice about it. If you have a religious store in your area, you can go in and let them know what you are looking for. I've had non-Catholic friends give us books about psalms or a book that's religious in nature. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift#post-237724 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 09:32:29 +0000 CarrieLouWho 237724@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Would gifting a rosary be acceptable if we are not Catholic? I like that idea, but wouldn't want to offend (our friends aren't easily offended though). Thanks! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift#post-237719 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 09:30:56 +0000 singingbee 237719@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've brought a small picture frame or a baby's first rosary. Something like that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/baptism-gift#post-237717 Fri, 27 Jul 2012 09:30:14 +0000 CarrieLouWho 237717@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DH &amp; I were invited to a close friend's son's Catholic Baptism on Sunday. Baby will be 9-10 months old. They are having the baptism after the 11 am service and are then having people over afterwards for brunch. </p> <p>This is my first baby baptism... is it customary to bring a gift? Any input is greatly appreciated!!! </p>
