Baby Dedication Registration
Congratulations on your desire to dedicate your child to the Lord! We are always eager to assist you in this important celebration. Baby Dedications are usually conducted on the 3rd Sunday of the month during the 9:00 A.M. worship service. Remember, children are a blessing from the Lord, and the greatest honor to the Lord is to dedicate them back to Him.
The act of child dedication is a public expression of the fact that your child belongs ultimately to God. He has given your child to you and you are humbly returning the "gift" back to God. You, as parents, are "setting apart" your child for a life of following Jesus.
Because of this, you are the primary responsibility for your child's spiritual development and as parents will be the primary example of leading your child into a relationship with Jesus Christ. This is an exciting time because you are fulfilling one of the purposes God has given you while here on this earth.
We at The Hope Church are here to help guide you, recommend resources, and be here for whatever life may throw at you or them. You are NOT alone in this and we are excited to share in this baby dedication experience.
