Child Dedication
What is child dedication?
Child Dedication is an opportunity for parents to share their commitment to raise their child(ren) in a Christ-centered home. It is also a time when we as a church can partner with you as you start this new journey with your child. We want to be your biggest cheerleader and guides a you begin parenting with the end in mind and are the spiritual leaders for you children!
What is involved in the dedication process?
Our dedication process has 3 parts. First you will attend a short orientation where we will give you all the materials that you will need and details about the entire prcess. Second, you will watch 3 short messages and complete some homework assisgnements. Lastly, you will attend a celebration where we will celebrate these beautiful lives and the commitment you as parents have made to raise them in a Christ-centered home. This is a time for your closest family and friends to come along side you and hear about what you learned from the homework and pray for you and your child.
Is there an age limit for children being dedicated?
No. You can dedicate any age child.
Is child dedication infant baptism?
Child Dedication is not infant baptism. We believe the Bible teaches that baptism is reserved for those who have already made a personal commitment to Jesus Christ, and are old enough to grasp the role of baptism as an outward symbol of their faith.
How often are dedications held?
Twice a year. Usually in the spring and fall. Keep your eye on the bulleting and this page for upcoming dates.
Thank you for your interest in Child Dedication and for caring about the spiritual health of your child. The Connexus Family Ministry Staff at Christ Community Church would be honored to walk with you through this process!
