Baby Dedication - Calvary Chapel Spokane Valley

"I will give him to the LORD all the days of his life"
1 Samuel 1:11

The ceremony of dedicating a child to the Lord appeals to those present as a beautiful and meaningful celebration of a young life held up before God. The presentation, while beautiful and full of heartfelt sentiment, also signifies a serious vow on their part of the parents: that they will raise this child unto the Lord to the best of their ability with God's help. As we promise to raise a child in the will of our heavenly Father, we not only make the vow at that moment, but also agree to sustain that child over time as active Christian parents. This includes:

  1. Praying constantly for our children (Job 1:5).
  2. Living Christ-like lives as authentic examples to our children (Proverbs (20:7).
  3. Instructing our children in the way of the Lord (Proverbs 22:6).
  4. Disciplining our children with love, even as the Lord disciplines us (Proverbs 13:24, 29:15, 17; Colossians 3:21).

Parents may add to this list as they prayerfully seek God's will for their families.
