We care about the safety of your child as much as you do. We strive to create physically and emotionally safe environments for your child through secure check-in and check-out, background checks for all volunteers, and ongoing age specific training.

CHILD DEDICATION

We are so glad that you are interested in participating with us in our next Child Dedication Celebration. You have been entrusted with the precious gift of new life, and we look forward to partnering with you as you embark on this parenting journey. It is our hope and prayer that the Child Dedication Celebration will be a memorable occasion for you and your family.

STEP 1. REGISTER ONLINE FOR AN UPCOMING DATE:

DEDICATIONS: SUNDAY, MAY 12, 2024 // DURING ALL SERVICES
PARENT HUDDLE: TBD

Child dedication is truly a parent commitment service. It’s the parent’s promise to offer their child to the Lord and to dedicate themselves to rearing their child for the glory of God.

OUR GOAL IS TO:
• Help parents recognize that they are stewards of God’s gift of children.
• Facilitate the parent’s verbal commitment to raise their child in a Christian environment.
•Challenge parents to be examples in service and worship for their children.
• Assist parents in laying a firm foundation of learning about God and an example of the power of salvation for their child.
