DH & 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.
This is my first baby baptism... is it customary to bring a gift? Any input is greatly appreciated!!!

I've brought a small picture frame or a baby's first rosary. Something like that.

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!

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.

@CarrieLouWho: You are welcome!!! If there is a local Catholic church in town, they usually have a small book shop/gift store.
