CONGRATULATIONS ON DEDICATING YOUR CHILD TO THE LORD!
“Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.” Proverbs 22:6 ESV
“…they brought him (Jesus) up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord.” Luke 2:22b ESV
Dedications are a celebration ceremony for babies or children, where Christian parents dedicate their children to God with joy and thanksgiving. We dedicate children to the Lord’s care believing that he will watch over them, protect them, bless them, lead them to himself, and guide them into the great plan he has for their life.
Dedication celebrations are scheduled several times during the year, and take part during our 10am Sunday service, where a pastor prays for God’s blessing on the children and their parents.
Dedications are different to water baptism. Water baptism is a personal decision made by an adult, or understanding young person, to publicly declare their faith in Jesus. We don’t water baptise babies or young children. (Please discuss the age of your child with a Citywest Pastor.)
The next dedication celebration will be held on Sunday March 14th during our 10am service at Vardy’s Rd Public School. Please use the registration form below to register your child(ren) for this event.
