I’d like to get something for my niece and nephew for their baptism this weekend and am at a loss as to what to give them. Do you all have any suggestions? What have you given in the past? They are new to the faith so I would like to get them something useful.

God Bless…
 
Perhaps something like a rosary, or St.(someone meaninful to them)medal? Or, a crucifix if they don’t have one. Perhaps even a book about the mass, or the Church, or the Saints, that is at their level may be useful- I don’t know of anything myself, but I’m sure they make such things.
 
a missal, appropriate for their age and reading ability, and teach them to use it and how to assist at Mass. Along with a good video on the Mass, this would be the best gift and RCIA candidate could receive (in my humble opinion), they probably have already been given a Bible, or at least New Testament, in the rite called presentation of the Gospel, (altho this rite is optional with children). we also give a Catechism after the presentation of the Creed.
