It’s a great moment when parents sense that their child is a gift from God. Our child dedication celebration provides an opportunity for parents to publicly express their decision to raise their child in a way that honours God. It is also a time for our church community to say, “We will partner with you in this journey”.
Dedication celebrations are held twice yearly (spring/fall) during the morning services and include a pre-requisite class for parents. Our next Child Dedication services will be held on Sunday, November 2, 2025.
For Cambridge parents, our Child Dedication Prep class will be in-person on Sunday, October 19, 10:00 AM. This class is required for parents who have not yet taken it or have not taken it recently. Register for the Cambridge prep class.
