compadre” and “comadre

"Some 80% of Mexicans seem to self-identify as Catholic – but by far most of them are not avid churchgoers. You get your baptism – as this is usually also an important societal event where you as parents choose your “compadre” and “comadre” (Godfather and Godmother) who will play an important role in your life as a family. Often they are family – but often they are “chosen family” and the bond can last a lifetime."
