At Holy Redeemer, we understand the profound joy and responsibility that come with welcoming a new life into your family and the world. Infant dedication is a cherished ceremony that symbolizes your commitment to raise your child in the ways of faith, entrusting them to God’s loving care. It's a moment of thanksgiving, celebration, and solemn promises in the presence of our church community.

The Meaning of Infant Dedication

Infant dedication is an act of faith and an expression of gratitude. It is not a sacrament of baptism, nor does it impart salvation on the child. Instead, it represents the parents' pledge to offer their child to God and to dedicate themselves to raising this child in a godly, loving, and nurturing environment. It's a commitment to pray for, teach, and guide your child towards a personal faith in Jesus Christ.

Why Infant Dedication is Important

This ceremony is a pivotal moment for families, marking the beginning of a lifelong journey of faith and spiritual growth. It allows parents to publicly declare their intention to be godly examples to their children and to seek the support of their church family in nurturing their child’s spiritual development. By dedicating your child to God, you acknowledge that your child is a gift from God and affirm your reliance on His grace and wisdom in your child’s upbringing.
