Baptism in the Episcopal Church
"Each candidate for Holy Baptism is to be sponsored by one or more baptized persons. Sponsors of adults and older children present their candidates and thereby signify their endorsement of the candidates and their intention to support them by prayer and example in their Christian life. Sponsors of infants, commonly called godparents, present their candidates, make promises in their own names, and also take vows on behalf of their candidates.
It is fitting that parents be included among the godparents of their own children. Parents and
godparents are to be instructed in the meaning of Baptism, in their duties to help the new Christians
grow in the knowledge and love of God, and in their responsibilities as members of his Church."
-- from the Book of Common Prayer
