God parents are a witnesses to a baptism. This is usually applied to infant baptism.

Both godparents and infant baptism are not found in The Bible. Baptism in the Bible is the baptism of a believer/ a Christian.

I wish to have two godmothers & one godfather. My son was born out of wedlock to a man who abandoned us & has never come to visit him or pay 1 cent in child support. He never gave me $ at any time from the moment he knew we were expecting to be chosen to turn to drugs as a 48-year-old “Christian Man of Faith”. His drug use consumed his entire paycheck, apparently during our courtship, he had a problem that he succeeded session hiding from me & everyone in my family! I'm struggling with a series of unsuccessful and ultimately detrimental surgeries & cannot care for my 20-month-old! My mother is caring for him & I'm in or grandfather bc my father & I haven't spoken in over a decade) now the church is shunning me bc my choice of 2 godmothers & 1 godfather who are all catholic but not up to snuff in their opinion. My son is being baptized on the 17th & i don’t know how this is going to happen. I pray my son is accepted into my faith but I am at the end of a very short rope I hope and pray the judgments made about me as a sinning unmarried woman don't taint or even prohibit the baptism of my baby next Saturday! Please pray for our little family this baby deserves all the blessings of the church & if turned away it will mark the end of a family bloodline that goes back centuries! My entire future & that of my baby boys hinges on draconian rules & I feel small but my baby will be recognized as a child of God just maybe not in the Catholic faith but in another Denomination Christianity
