There’s a very special tradition that has been part of the Christian faith for two thousand years. It’s having a Godmother and Godfather present for the baptism of a child.
A Godfather is that very special man, another great dad, the father figure who promised to care for you in case your dad didn’t live until you were grown up. The Godfather is especially responsible for the spiritual well-being of a little boy (godson) or a little girl (goddaughter) under his care.
And a Godmother is a role model who would be responsible in case of the loss of her godchild’s mother. Because she knows the best things in life for the child, she can guide them as they grow and ensure they have a sound spiritual foundation.
A Godfather or Godmother is a best friend to the child put in their care.
They provide not only the important things the child needs to have, but they also provide all forms of support that can help the child live a balanced life.
This tradition was extra special in the past when life spans were much shorter, but the tradition is still important in bringing families together today.

Happy Father’s Day Quotes from the Movie the Godfather
As Father’s Day approaches, it is good to think about one of the greatest father figures in movie history: Vito Corleone, the titular Godfather in the iconic 1972 American crime film.
Marlon Brando brought the character to life on the big screen, and Mario Puzo’s novel provided the foundation for this legendary performance.
Anyone who has watched the movie will notice these two things about Vito Corleone’s character.
He was a loving father and a role model. Some people see him as a powerful figure in the world of organized crime, but the man had soft spots which make him have a special place in the hearts of many who had watched the movie.
The Godfather quotes that have become ingrained in popular culture are a testament to the wisdom and strength that he exuded in every scene.
From his close bond with his son Michael (played by Al Pacino) to his protective instincts toward his daughter, Vito showed us all what it meant to be a wonderful person and a true father figure.
Of course, The Godfather is not just a movie about a mafia don. It’s also a story about the lives of Italian immigrants and the challenges they faced as they tried to find their way in a new country.
Vito Corleone’s rise to power is a reflection of the struggles and triumphs of an entire community, and the film’s portrayal of family dynamics and first love only adds to its appeal.
Anyone can call The Godfather a crime film, but we can an important life lesson from it. That lesson is, tough men have soft spot for their loved ones, especially their children.
They too tried hard to guide them on the right path though the world might portray them as evil. They may have to face personal insults or professional obstacles, but they highly prioritize the education and mentoring of their loved ones.
The quotes below are memorable sayings from the iconic film “Godfather.”
“I’m gonna make him an offer he can’t refuse.” – Don Vito Corleone
“Revenge is a dish best served cold.” – Don Vito Corleone
“A man who doesn’t spend time with his family can never be a real man.” – Don Vito Corleone
“I want you to use all your powers and all your skills.” – Don Vito Corleone
“I want reliable people, people who aren’t going to be carried away.” – Don Corleone
“Friendship and money. Oil and water.” – Michael Corleone
“He’s been dying from the same heart attack for the last twenty years.” – Michael Corleone
“I respect those who tell me the truth no matter how hard it is.” – Michael Corleone
“Soldiers are paid to fight, the rebels aren’t.” – Michael Corleone
“Never hate your enemies. It clouds your judgement.” – Michael Corleone

Final Thoughts
