One of the biggest findings of Church of England research was that godparents really matter to families. In fact, 91% of parents gave having godparents as a reason for wanting to have their child baptized at a christening. These badges help you acknowledge to parents, godparents and the whole congregation how valued and important godparents are, and that their commitment to pray for their godchild is something to be celebrated and encouraged. The badges can be left in a place for people to take, or given out as a gift, either during a christening service or on Godparents’ Sunday.
