Parent & Child Dedications
 This act by the parents is a prayerful declaration of their stewardship over God’s gracious gift to them. It is also their pledge to do all they can, as God gives them wisdom, to raise their child to respect and honor God and to love and serve Jesus Christ. These dedications are typically done once a month. For more info about our Parent & Child Dedications, please contact
