Kim Kardashian and husband Kanye West visited a centuries-old Armenian church in Jerusalem on Monday for the baptism of their daughter, North West.
The Kardashians fended off swooning fans as they entered the Saint James Cathedral in Jerusalem's Old City.
Archbishop Aris Shirvanian, an Armenian church official, said the family had arrived for a baptism ceremony.
'Kim Kardashian's daughter will be baptized and become a Christian officially and a member of the Armenian church,' Shirvanian said, slightly perplexed by all the commotion.
'All I know is that she's a famous personality. I don't know her in person. In any case she is welcome with her family.'
A source tells E! that Khloe, who attended the ceremony wearing sneakers and ripped jeans, is North's godmother while the priest acted as her godfather (while uncommon, it is an option where there isn't one).
The insider described the ceremony as 'so special'.
The 22-month-old was dressed in a white gown and her father was wearing the same colour.
Kim opted for a striped wrap-around dress and flat sandals.
Afterwards, the family dined with Jerusalem mayor Nir Barkat at Mona Restaurant.
Members of reality TV's first family touched down Monday in the Holy Land for what was described as a private two-day visit.
They family had earlier arrived in a private jet at Israel's international airport before being whisked away in a dark black SUV to a hotel in Jerusalem.
