The purpose of the oilcloth is to gently absorb the oil and myrrh from your child's body. That is why they must be made from high-quality cotton.

Do not forget that an oilcloth set consists of the oilcloth, the towel, the small towel, as well as the underwear that comes into direct contact with your child.

Cleaning the oilcloths after the ceremony is a small ritual in itself, as tradition dictates that the godmother along with the mother should rinse it 3 times in the sea or river, in running water. The purpose is not to make them perfectly clean but to retain the scent of myrrh & oil from the ceremony.

You should know that the holy myrrh used in the baptism is prepared once every ten years at the Phanar by the Patriarch.

Tip for storing oilcloths: wrap them in garment storage paper along with white Marseille soap. This way, the oilcloths will smell like soap and myrrh.
