Child Dedications

“'I prayed for this child and the Lord has granted me what I asked of Him. So now I give him to the Lord. For his whole life he will be given over to the Lord.' And he worshiped the Lord there." -1 Samuel 1:27-28.
Child Dedications at Makers Church are about providing an opportunity for parents to bring their children before the Makers community to declare full intent on their commitment to raise their children to love God and love others. It is a commitment from the families and from the Makers Community at large to grow together and support one another in the raising up of our children.
