Child Dedication

Child Dedication


What is child dedication?
 Child dedication is the public opportunity for parents to dedicate their child to the Lord, promising before the congregation to bring up their child in the Christian faith. It is also the time for the church family to pledge their support of the parents in prayer and encouragement as they bring the child to church and raise him or her to know, love, and serve the Lord.
 
 
 
How is child dedication different from infant baptism?
Child dedication makes no claim of salvation for the child, nor does it symbolize entrance into the church body. Churches who baptize infants usually have one or the other belief.
 
For more information about child dedication, please contact the church office.
