Great Gifts for Godparents
Godparents are not always easy to shop for. You want to find them something very meaningful, but you also want it to be something that celebrates your chosen religion. When you are looking at gifts for godparents just keep it simple and from the heart.
A Cross
There are so many different crosses and these are always a great gift idea. You can find ones that hang on the wall, ones that sit on a table or even crosses that can be placed in cars so that they always have God with them. Go with one that really draws you in because this means that it means something to you and will mean something to them. Gift shops and religious stores will have a large selection for you to choose from. If you are short on time or just do not have many places that sell crosses in your area, look around online and you are sure to find the perfect one.
An Ornament
Ornaments are often associated with Christmas trees and you can certainly buy one with the intention of them putting it on their tree, but an ornament can also be displayed throughout the year. For example, they can be hung from the wall, door, and drawer handles or simply placed on a table. Gift stores will have these. If you want the biggest selection to choose from be sure to look around the holidays. You may also find millions of police necklaces online which could serve as pendants. Just narrow your search down to ornaments that represent you and your godparents’ religion.
A Book
There are a variety of religious books. Of course, the Bible is an option and there are many very beautiful bibles available. You can also find religious books that focus on specific scriptures or a book of psalms. These books can all help to guide your godparents in their relationship with God. If you chose a book, consider having a special message put on the inside cover that means something to all of you. You can write this yourself or some stores will offer to do this for you and you just supply the message.
Framed Poetry
“Footprints” is a very meaningful poem and one that is closely associated with walking next to the Lord. You can find a variety of posters with this poem and then have it framed at a local framer or even craft stores do framing.
