What to wear for a Boys Christening/Baptism day.
The christening of a baby is a momentous occasion. This religious ceremony often acts as their official introduction to the Church community and for many families acts as the child's religious indoctrination.
Ashley 6 Month Satin Christening Gown.
Each family has their own traditions and will pass these traditions down from generation to generation.
Boys can wear either a traditional style of gown or suit for their baptism.
A traditional style of gown tends to be worn by a younger baby boy that is usually under 6 months old. For older babies, parents prefer to dress their boys in either a suit or romper that is made from silk.
This outfit is kept by the family as a keepsake and tends to be passed down to the next generation, therefore making it a family heirloom christening outfit.
In some traditions, the Godparents purchase the outfit for their Godchild with a number of other items like a gold cross and chain. This will be kept by the child to be treasured for life!
In the Greek orthodox religion, it is a tradition of the Godparents to purchase the gown, cross, towels, oil cap, sheet, nappy, icon, candle, singlet and soap.
These accessories are taken in a large decorative box to the church by the Godparents. Once the baby is baptised by the priest, the Godparents dress the child in his new outfit.
This is usually a white garment and marks the moment of the child's baptism.
In a Catholic baptism, the baby is taken to the church in his outfit which can be either a gown or a suit. The priest baptises the baby using a white garment as a symbol.
The white garment is a symbol of our Christian purity and dignity. It also means we are "putting on Christ" and are now a follower of the Church.
In a Catholic baptism, one of the Godparents/Sponsor must have received the sacrament of the Holy Eucharist and Confirmation. This person needs to be a practising Catholic and their role is to be a spirital mentor for the child in their faith.
Their responsibility is to support their Godchild in following a christian life in fellowship with the church. The Godparent needs to set an example for the child by attending church regularly and support him/her on a christian journey through life.
Other items that are used in a Catholic baptism are:
1. Chrism oil - This blessed oil is placed on the chest and forehead of the baby and is a sign of the Holy Spirit.
2. Candle - The candle is a symbol of the light of Christ and reflects the burning light of faith. This candle is lit from the church candle which is used at Easter time.
3. Water - Water washes away our original sin and makes us followers of Christ.
