Child dedication.

A child is a gift. Raising that child to know and follow Jesus is a journey you do not have to walk alone.

Child dedication is a moment for your family to commit to that journey, surrounded by a church family ready to pray, encourage, and walk with you.

A commitment that continues

More than a moment on Sunday.

In dedication, parents publicly express their desire to raise their children to know and love God. We thank God for each child, pray for the family, and commit as a church to support them.

The commitment reaches into everyday life: praying together, opening Scripture, talking about Jesus, showing forgiveness, and helping children see what following him looks like.

Our prayer for every child

Our prayer is that, when each child is old enough to understand the gospel, they will choose to follow Jesus, be baptized, and continue growing in faith. We want to help them walk with Jesus throughout their lives.

What are we committing to?

You are expressing your desire to follow Jesus in your own life and help your child know him through your teaching, example, prayer, and participation in the life of the church.
