BABY DEDICATION

The real dedication is of the parents to whom God has entrusted the child. The dedication ceremony is primarily a public declaration of the parents’ acknowledgement of several Scriptural truths:

1- They are expressing their appreciation of God’s gift to them! (Psalm 127:3).
2- They are publicly acknowledging their responsibility to speak wisdom into the heart of their children (Proverbs 1:8, 2:1, 3:1, 4:10, 5:1).
3- They are taking responsibility for the hard work of instructing their children in the Lord not just when it is convenient but at all times! (Deuteronomy 6:6-7)

During the worship service on January 22nd 2023 Mr & Mrs Lopez dedicated their son Jonah before God and His people, and committed themselves to do all within their power to be the best parents possible for their son. Asking God for strength and wisdom to carry out a task that is beyond their abilities.

Children are a heritage from the Lord,
offspring a reward from him.
— PSALM 127:3
