Dedication


















we dedicated Heidi at church on sunday. Unfortunately, this is the only picture I got. None with my inlaws, because we were going to do them at our house afterwards and then completely forgot.

In our church, we do not do baby baptisms, as we feel that it is a outward sign of a personal commitment to the Lord and so needs to be done when the person is older and aware of what is happening. Instead, we do dedications, which is a time for parents to make a commitment to raise their child in the Lord, and to remember that the child ultimately belongs to the Lord.

We don't do baby baptisms either...for the same reasons you mentioned! :)
