A lot, but we belong to a "poor" parish (in Coney Island) and thought that if we had the $ to spend on a party, the church had to get the equivalent. No church=no baptism.

My church suggested 25, which we though was crazy but thats what they said. The godfather paid it and I think he gave 50.

Re: How much of a donation did you give the Church for a Christening

I feel cheap...they suggested $50 and that's what I gave. Plus my grandfather who is the deacon at the church told me to give that much, now I feel bad
