Baby Dedication

Sunday, July 13

9 AM & 10:30 AM

We’re excited to celebrate a special moment in the lives of our families—Baby Dedication (birth to 2 years) is happening on Sunday, July 13th, during both of our morning services!

 

This is a meaningful time when parents commit to raising their children to know and follow Jesus, and as a church family, we come alongside them with love, support, and prayer.

 

We invite everyone to join us that Sunday to celebrate and encourage these families as they take this important step. It’s a powerful reminder of the role we all play in helping the next generation grow in faith.

 

Parents who would like to participate can register now—we’d be honored to celebrate with you!
