"The way I've understood it, I'm to make sure that the parents are doing their job raising their kids in the ways of the church. If anything ever happens to the parents, then I'm to personally take charge of my Godsons religious up bringing."

Can I borrow you to say this to my mother-in-law who has always thought being a godparent was just another event to send money and a card?

I'm not sure I'm a good example of a godparent, as I don't send money and cards. But my buddy does an excellent job instructing, and having his kids taught the ways of the church. And if anything did happen to him and his wife, I'd like to think I'd be right there to help meet there needs. Especially the most important, their spiritual needs.
