Child Dedication

For this child I prayed

Child Dedication is an opportunity for you to actively dedicate yourself before God, to provide everything necessary for the growth of your child physically, mentally, emotionally, socially, and spiritually.

The importance of raising your child in the discipline of biblical principles and the instruction of the Lord is written in Proverbs 22:6, Deuteronomy 6:6‐7, and Ephesians 6:4.

Gateway Church defines Parent/Child Dedication as the parental willingness to partner with God and the church to raise your child. We believe dedication is not a sacrament; it cannot impart grace or salvation to your child. Salvation only comes through Jesus Christ as each person recognizes his or her sinfulness and receives forgiveness and eternal life through Jesus Christ as their personal Lord and Savior.


We do child dedications on the 3rd Sunday of every month. If you would like to sign up, please click the button below

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.”  1 Samuel 1:27-28
