Not sure what a "naming cermony" is....dont' worry I didn't either!! After I asked Sheree a ton of questions, this is what I was able to gather. A naming ceremony is an African tradition where members of the family and officiant gather around the child being named. The parents tell everyone what the name means and then family and friend pray over the child. The officiant also has certain herbs that the family eats as they prayer...each herb means something significant to be prayed for. I think it was pretty cool to learn about...I love learning about different cultures-- it's what makes us unique! :) Check out the invitation:
