Child Dedication
“Behold, children are a heritage from the LORD, The fruit of the womb is a reward.” - Psalm 127:3
At Calvary Chapel Solid Rock, we believe children are a gift from the Lord, and child dedication is an opportunity for parents to publicly commit themselves to raising their child in the knowledge and ways of God. Rather than baptizing infants, we dedicate them to the Lord, recognizing that faith in Jesus Christ is personal and that each child must one day personally respond to the gospel and choose to follow Him.
If you would like to dedicate your child, please complete the form below. We would be honored to come alongside your family and pray with you as you commit your child to the Lord.

What Is Child Dedication?
Child dedication is a special time when parents publicly commit to raising their children according to God’s Word and praying that they will come to know Jesus Christ personally. It is also an opportunity for our church family to pray for and encourage parents in this important calling.
What Child Dedication Means
Child dedication is not baptism, nor does it save a child. Rather, it is a commitment by parents to faithfully teach their children about Jesus and model a Christ-centered home. We believe each child must one day make their own personal decision to follow Christ.
