Love the child and share your own faith with it, share how having faith has help you in your life and teach the child how to pray and how to sing songs of reverence. Pray with the child so it learns how to speak to the Divine and feels comfortable and welcomed to do so.
These seeds will take hold in their own way over time - but having hope and faith and a belief in a Benevolent unseen force can be the Guiding Light in the darkest of times.
I can think of no better Gift of love than the Gift of Faith and Hope to another which is not dependent on another human.
