Child Dedication
When raising kids, we understand the importance of guiding your children to a fruitful and healthy life. For in Psalms 8:2 says, “Through the praise of children and infants you have established a stronghold against your enemies, to silence the foe and the avenger.”
This is why we invite any parent to bring their child/children to partake in a public statement of faith: that you wish to raise your child under God's grace and wisdom.
Each campus will be hosting this during service on Mother’s Day weekend. Select your campus below and fill out the online form.
