Bringing you the
"Good News" of Jesus Christ
and His Church While PROMOTING CATHOLIC
Apologetic Support groups loyal to the Holy Father and Church's
magisterium
I have a problem and a question. I have two newborn
sons and I am going to have them baptized
but
I don't know of anyone in my family right
now that could be sponsors for them.
My family was once Catholic but most of them
don't practice the faith and don't hold a
Catholic world view. My question is:
Are sponsors necessary for the Baptism
of my kids or can they be baptized without
sponsors?

Thomas —
Catholics need Godparents, at least
one, but the Godparent does not need
to be family.
The pastor can recommend someone,
or you can use a friend.
