What to Say in a Christening Card: Thoughtful Messages for a Blessed Day

Wondering what to say in a christening card? You’re not alone. A child’s christening is a beautiful celebration of faith, family, and beginnings.

What Is a Christening Card Message?

  • A quote from the Bible or spiritual literature

  • Words of commitment from a godparent

  • Paired with a gift like a personalized cross necklace, engraved Bible quote, or custom name keepsake

  • Celebrate a milestone in the child’s faith journey

  • Show your commitment to the child’s spiritual growth

  • Compliment a cherished christening gift

  • Strengthen emotional bonds between giver and family
