A New Beginning: Baptism commemoration

November seems to be a popular month for birthdays. As a result of snowstorms or Valentine’s Day, there must be someone close to you who is a Scorpio. And once you get that image out of your head, perhaps now is a good time to prepare for an upcoming baptism as a result of the beautiful miracle.  

A baptism is a Christian sacrament of admission to the Christian Church, with the holy water used to symbolize purification. No matter if one is Catholic or Baptist or a general Christian, everyone involved can appreciate the experience of a new member adoption to the religion.

Finding the right gift can be daunting to commemorate this rite of passage. Most likely the newly baptized Christian will be a newborn, making this a present they would enjoy and cherish later in life. Many other baptism party goers may already be gifting bibles, rosaries and other important religious artifacts, so finding a personalized baptism gift that will stand the test of time is challenge we happily accept.

DaySpring Milestones offersmany commemorative options to celebrate your loved one’s baptism. Below are some of the many creative designs that will touch everyone who sees and receives this one-of-a-kind offering:
