Baby/Child Dedication
(Infant to age 5) Baby/Child dedication is not a Baptism, and it does not impart salvation to the child. Baby/Child Dedications are viewed as a confirmation between the parents, godparents, family and the church to raise the child in a Godly way until the child is old enough to make his/her decision in accepting Christ as his/her personal Savior. The dedication of Children is taught in the Bible. As a baby, Jesus was dedicated by his parents. Jesus also bestowed blessings on the children. (Mark 10:16)
