Parent and Child Dedication Class
April 29, 6:30pm, Parlor (B1030)
Parent and Child Dedication is May 10th and it’s a meaningful moment for families to publicly thank God for the gift of their child and commit to raising them in a Christ-centered home. During this special service, parents stand before their church family to affirm their desire to guide their child toward a lifelong relationship with Jesus.
As a church, we also make a commitment to support, encourage, and partner with parents as they lead their children in faith. Parent-Child Dedication is not about a child’s salvation, but about a family’s intentional step to place their home under the leadership of Christ and invite the church to walk alongside them in their journey of faith.
We would love to celebrate this milestone with your family. If you’re interested in participating in an upcoming dedication service, please register and plan to attend the class on April 29.

Beginning in May, the Finance Committee is simplifying the online giving options. This change will be tested over the next few months to evaluate how it best serves our church and supports our mission. In May, there will be two primary funds: Church Operations and Generations.
If you would like to designate your gift to a specific area, you may do so using the memo line. Occasional special funds will also be available online as needed.
