Depends if it's a 60$ gift card to a strip club or not.

As it is a baptism of a child then i assume it is a baby therefore the answer is no , how would the child know what an app or apple product is , that is the sort of gift i would consider giving to a teenager for there birthday or Christmas otherwise you would be getting the gift for the parents of the child and not the child .

wait... is this a new gift card or an old one that you've already used before? if it's an old one then just go to the store and buy something worth $60 that you *think* they might like and include the receipt in a plain envelope with the gift so they can return it.
it would be EXTREMELY TACKY to give a used gift card. better to give the wrong gift and let them return it.

lol.
why bring a gift? in the first place? seems no one brought gifts to either of my baptisms.
but if you really want to give a gift, i see nothing wrong with it, except maybe making a spiritual ritual into a materialistic venture.
its bad enough that JW become so sure that birthdays and christmas should not be participated in. or do they?

A card with a nice note and prayer from you would be as nice, sliding in the gift card makes it even nicer.
