+1. Christian, but not Catholic and didn't tip for baptism.

I usually pledge one tenth of the harvest from the south vineyard in perpetuity. Less if the tenant farmers are having a really hard year.

This is our third child....it never occured to me to give anything for #1, then I heard about it and gave the priest a thank you note with $50 in it for #2, then heard some friends talking about $100 or $200....so I thought maybe $50 seemed cheap. We are getting ready to do #3 so I was curious about what others did.

50$ was cheap
