Baby dedication is an important ceremony where parents publicly present their child to the congregation, seeking God’s blessings and committing to raise the child in a Christian environment. Rooted in biblical principles, particularly exemplified in the dedication of Jesus at the temple (Luke 2:22-40).

This practice is not a sacrament like baptism but a parental commitment. During the ceremony, parents express gratitude, acknowledging the child as a gift from God, and seek the support and prayers of the church community in guiding and nurturing their child. The congregation, in turn, commits to supporting the family in their journey of faith.

Baby dedication underscores the importance of family, community, and spiritual upbringing in the context of Christian beliefs, fostering a sense of unity and shared responsibility within the church body.
