Congratulations on your baby’s birth!
Being a parent is thrilling and full of emotion, and it is our desire that you would take some time to focus on what matters most. We would like to stand behind you as a trusted source of support, encouragement and direction as you make a commitment to lead your child into a personal and growing relationship with Jesus Christ.
Parent-Child Dedication is an opportunity for parents to publicly proclaim their desire and commitment to raising their child in a way that honors God and to acknowledge their need for God’s help and the help of His church to fulfill this responsibility.
What dedication is not:This isn’t the day of salvation for your child. Salvation is a free gift of God, received when someone grasps his or her need for Christ and makes the conscious decision to enter into a relationship with God. It isn’t baptism for your child. Baptism is the public profession of faith as described above. Once a child is old enough to make a decision to accept Christ as his or her personal Savior, then he or she can make the choice to be baptized.
We ask all parents looking to dedicate their children to take part in our 3-week study, Starting Your Family Off Right. Dedication services happen three times a year, or as needed based on demand in the church. To register for the next service, fill out the Parent-Child Dedication Application and return it to the Children’s Ministry department.
