Child Dedications

At CTK we value Family. We believe that the purpose of parenting is to impress the hearts of our children with a love for God. Loving and knowing God is the purpose of life, and the role of the parent is to lead children to that truth.  If we are not intentional with our parenting, we run the risk of ending up with a family filled with achievement, recreation, and niceness. God has a far grander plan for us and for our children.   

To encourage parents at the start of this amazing journey, we offer Child Dedications three times a year in March, June and October.  Child Dedication is a two part process that consists of a three week class and a Dedication Service the following week.

The first element is a mandatory three week class that will discuss the following topics.

  • Biblical teaching on what it truly means to dedicate your child to God
  • Biblical instruction on parenting, setting your home apart for the Lord, having goals and plans for raising your family, and on the role of god-parents
  • Building accountability and encouragement into your lives to help you follow through after the dedication service

The second element is the Child Dedication Service. We encourage families to invite close friends, family and god-parents to participate in the Dedication Service as part of their support and accountability team.  More information about the service is given during the class. Attendance to the three week class is mandatory for those wanting to participate in the service.

  • The upcoming Child Dedication Class will be held on Sundays, May 16, 23 and June 6 from 11:30am-12:30pm.  (No class on May 30 due to Memorial Day Weekend)
  • The Dedication Service will be on Sunday, June 13 from 1-2pm

You must RSVP for the class by Monday, May 10 by submitting a Child Dedication Request Form.
