At Hope City, we believe child dedication is a meaningful and sacred moment for families. It is an opportunity for parents to publicly commit their children to the Lord and to covenant together to raise them in the fear and admonition of the Lord. As your church family, we joyfully stand with you as witnesses - committing to pray for, encourage, and support you as you nurture your child in faith. Child Dedications are held quarterly, as requested. If you are interested in dedicating your child, simply sign up and a member of our team will contact you to confirm your information and walk you through the next steps. Family and friends are warmly invited to attend and celebrate this special moment with you.
Dedication Covenant:
We believe dedicating your child is a covenant made between the parents/guardians and God. We ask that you approach this dedication as a sacred and serious commitment. As the parent/guardian of the child, you will need to read over the following vows:
As parents, we recognize the honor and privilege it is to train our children up in the ways of God and accept the spiritual responsibilities we have in our relationship with them. We commit to stand strong for righteousness and the word of God and to build our family upon it as our strong foundation. In understanding the influence that comes with relationships, we commit to teach our children to abide by Biblical boundaries in their relationships. We know that we set the example for children and commit to being a good example of worship and christian community. We will strive for purity in every aspect of our lives and prioritize integrity in all of our relationships. Lastly, we understand God’s charge to us as parents and we have faith that He has equipped us with power to carry out these vows and raise our children well.
