A Meaningful LDS Baptism Keepsake Gift – Baptism is a sacred milestone—often the most important day of a young child’s life thus far. Celebrate this beautiful step of faith with a heartfelt and Christ-centered keepsake. This thoughtfully designed kit includes a double-sided countdown banner, symbolic pins, and a canvas display—each element created to help children understand, prepare for, and remember the sacred covenants they make with Heavenly Father at baptism. The 8 symbolic pins represent baptismal promises made by the child and the beautiful blessings God promises in return, inspired by Mosiah 18:8–10. Prepare their heart. Celebrate their faith. Help them remember.
Make baptism meaningful, fun, and unforgettable!
