The baby boy accessories
There are many items used at Christenings that are very important, one of the main items is olive oil, this is used to place on the body of the child as the priest blesses the baby, before he/she is dunked into the holy water.
The God Parents
Unconditional Love
One of many beautiful moments captured. The Godmother and her Godchild.
This moment was taken just after the baby was blessed with holly water, basically dunked in the bath inside the church.
Holy Wine
Once the baby has been blessed, the last stage at the Christening is to give the baby Holy wine, this represents the blood of Jesus which also represents ‘life’
