Baby Dedication Service I

As Christians, we believe that a child is not accountable for sin until they reach an age of accountability or when they have a knowledge of right and wrong. Therefore, we do not baptize our babies. Baptism is a sacred event following our acceptance of Christ as savior and repenting of our sins. Instead of infant baptism, we honor God with a baby dedication service. During this time, the parents, grandparents, extended family and the church, commit themselves to teach and raise the child in the knowledge of God and when they have grown to understand right from wrong, they will have a desire to accept Christ as Savior of their lives.
