What is a baby dedication?
Here at Refuge City we believe children are a gift from the LORD and that we should always value and treasure them.
​
We also believe that a baby dedication is an opportunity for parents to thank God for the child that He has blessed them with. Parents use this as an opportunity to bless their child and declare that they will raise him/her to honour God. This is usually done in the presence of family and friends as well as the church community.
Why is a baby dedication important?
During the dedication, parents declare their commitment and desire to raise their child in a way that is pleasing to the Lord and according to scripture. Dedicating one's child to the Lord is dedicating your child and parenting to the Lord for Him to lead and guide you in the process. When parents dedicate their children to the Lord, they are declaring Deuteronomy 6:4-7 and vowing to uphold the standards of the Lord in their daily lives and pass those standards on to their children.
​
"Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it."
Proverbs 22:6
