Amethyst Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 I have to send my god-daughter a confirmation card and gift. She's getting confirmed the Sunday before Halloween. It's a Lutheran church, so I assume they'll make a big deal about Reformation Day. I feel hypocritical for sending her stuff, but it's something I have to do. Not sending a card and gift is not an option. Also, her family isn't exactly well off financially, and she could use the money. At least, this is a once-in-a-lifetime thing. How do other people deal with religious obligations like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snookums Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 I'd probably do the same thing....consider all and send some money. It sounds like you'd like to help her out financially anyway.... but....for me attending the chruch in person, would be something I wouldn't do.

It's way out of town anyway (in a neighboring state, even). I don't see those particular relatives more than once every few years or so, and it's always at something like a wedding or a funeral. I mostly just send my god-daughter a birthday card, a Christmas card, and the occassional thinking-of-you letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
