Being a godparent is a big responsibility, and it's one we as Catholics should take very seriously. Yet maybe you don't know all that is expected of you as a godparent or how you should carry out those duties.
In Beyond the Baptism, Fr. Jeffrey Kirby provides practical guidance to godparents in a brief, approachable way. He walks you through the role of the godparent as a ministry of faith and accompaniment and helps you go deeper in your ongoing call to be a godparent.
Whether you are preparing to be a godparent for the first time or are already a godparent but aren't sure how to be present in the life of your godchild after the baptism ceremony, this book is for you.
