Re: How many God children do you have?
Posted by Janice
well, what about this, my last godchild was not baptized catholic. When I was asked, I told parents, that I am Catholic, and if their beliefs are different isn't that weird? The same beliefs would be a must when I am picking out a Godparent. I think I am going to pick my oldest godchild anyway.
I don't think religion would stop me from choosing who I want to choose as godparent. Most of my cousins are catholic, and I am protestant, but I think the relationship with the child is more important. But I don't know the church's view on what makes a godparent.

Re: How many God children do you have?
I have 1 almost 2 god children
Anthony who is my sister's son
and soon to be Ava who will be my cousin's daughter....due in the very near future.
I'm so close to my sister and my cousin...I was the maid of honor at both of thier weddings...that I would spoil their children to no end anyway....even if I wasn;t their god mother.....although it does get tough finacially....so since we all have children now...we decided taht we only do for the children...not each other...it helps a little

Re: How many God children do you have?
i have 4
mind you i think it is really odd to be called a godparent being i am not christian - instead of a church thing i was made wanted guardian at the court house - also a strange thing but all the kids call me godmom
so i guess that counts

Re: How many God children do you have?
I don't have any, dh has one.
Posted by Janice
and for parents, or one day parents...Did you compromise with DH and let him pick a godparent? I have no idea who DH would pull out of his past.
We picked together but we picked one from each side. My son has my sister and dh's brother as godparents. My daughter has my brother and dh's sister as godparents. My son was a no-brainer, I only have one sister and dh only has one brother. My daughter, on the other hand, her godfather was a given but dh has two sisters so we had to pick between them.

Well, the purpose of a godparent is to serve as a "spiritual guardian" and to make sure the child is raised within the faith. I think that in the Catholic church at least one of the godparents is supposed to be Catholic.
I have two - one of my cousins and my nephew. My aunt is pregnant right now and I have a feeling I'll have a third! 
I think it's such an honor to be chosen as a godparent - it means the parents trust you with the most precious thing in their life! Or in my cousin's case..they ran out of relatives!!!

Re: How many God children do you have?
I have one godson, who is now 17 and just started COLLEGE  Dammm I feel old
He's my little cousin (my aunt/uncle are considerably younger than my parents). My brother and I were asked to be his godparents, and I was only 18 at the time. He's more like my little brother than a "godson "
DH is godfather to at least one of his cousin's children .. maybe more!??
We were not raised the same religion so its doubtful we'd be asked to be 'godparents' together
