Baby Dedication Sunday!

Family Day!

◦We minister to FAMILIES: The first ministry God created was family. We are dedicated to ministering to the entire family, which in turn builds a healthy church.

◦Baby dedication is a ceremony in which parents commit to raising their child in accordance with Biblical principles and in the faith of Jesus Christ. It is a public act of thanksgiving to God for the gift of the child and a declaration of the parents’ intention to guide the child in a Godly manner. A ceremony where parents make commitment to raise a child in the Lord

◦Psalm 127:3 (NIV) says “Children are a heritage from the Lord, offspring a reward from him.”

◦Children belong to God!

◦Luke 2:22 (NIV) says: “When the time came for the purification rites required by the Law of Moses, Joseph and Mary took him to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord.”

◦They presented Jesus!

◦1 Samuel 1:27-28 (NIV) says: “I prayed for this child, and the Lord has granted me what I asked of him. So now I give him to the Lord. For his whole life he will be given over to the Lord.” And he worshiped the Lord there.

◦Families are Important To Us at Impact!
