Mom to Mom

Mom to Mom is a Biblically-based parenting program designed around the Titus 2:4 concept of older women encouraging younger women in their relationships with their husbands and children. It includes quality instruction in parenting, small group discussion, and the interaction of more experienced mothers with less experienced moms. Designed to be both a place of nurture for committed Christian women and a "safe place" to bring community friends, it often becomes a bridge into the church.

Child Dedication

The dedication of a child is a commitment of the parents to raise their child in the ways of the Lord - verses found in Deuteronomy chapter six. Child dedication has its roots in the Old Testament, where first-born males were to be brought to the temple and dedicated to the Lord. Dedication does not mean that the child is automatically going to Heaven - it is simply an expression of the parent's commitment to raise their children in the ways of the Lord.
