Gift from godparents to godson on baptism "anniversary"

Anonymous
OP - what a lovely question. Please ignore the disrespect. Some of the PP's parents (and Godparents) should have taught them better.

There is no need to do anything but since it is in your memory, I think a mention of it via call or text would be nice. No need for anything formal. My DC have great Godparents and 2 out of 6 are non-Catholics. And they are actually the best at the 'job'. They keep in contact with DC separate from us by call on their birthdays and checking in around holidays. One who is close will take DC out from time to time to different events she likes. But one is overseas currently and will reach out in some way a few time a year directly to DC. It has been great to watch those relationships continue. IMO kids need adults outside their family to feel connected to and a Godparent is a perfect fit for this.

I think life is so stressful for so many right now, I know I would be really touched if someone reached out with a nice note regarding just about anything!

I have a goddaughter and a godson. Both turned out gay. Thank God the Pope is now cool with that.

I know many cradle Catholics who think they know a lot about the faith when in fact they understand very little. I know because I was a cradle Catholic who didn't truly start begin to understand the awesome reality and adventure that is the Catholic Church. That being said, I call all 4 of my Godchildren on their baptism anniversaries and try to send cards or a little gift. It is a very important day to remember.
