 Baptismal offering 
thanks to those who responded to my post a few weeks ago regarding baptizing dd when I am not catholic.  We have found a church and have started the process   
  We received some paperwork yesterday confirming our information & date for the baptism.  Also included was an envelope for baptismal offering.  
  How much is "standard"?  Thank you!

  I liked our church limited it to 6 kids, my sisters church had about 15+ babies.

 Re: Baptismal offering 
In our church you give what you can afford.  We gae $150 with one and $50 with the other because that's what we could afford at the time.

  i definitely agree that should be the case.  $200 which was my first guess would be stretching it at this time so I'm glad $100-$150 seems to be fine 
  Thanks, everybody!

 Re: Baptismal offering 
When we went to the baptismal class our church said $50 was typically the norm.
