What is a dedication day?
A Dedication is a Christian ceremony that dedicates the infant to God and welcomes the baby into the church. During this ceremony, the parents also dedicate themselves to raising the child as a Christian.
What does the ceremony involve?
The baby is brought up to the front of the church by the parents, godparents or other close relatives. The minister says a prayer over the child and then asks the parents to make their promises. These usually include promising to bring up the child in the Christian faith, teaching them about God’s love and living according to Christian values. The godparents also make similar promises. After the promises have been made, the minister will usually say a prayer of dedication and then invite the congregation to pray for the child and parents.
