A Story of a Child Dedication
Dedication Class: November 11, 9:00 a.m. in room 122
Dedication Ceremony: December 2
A few months after we started attending Pulpit Rock Church, my husband and I decided to dedicate our son, Luke. He was eight months old, so we figured it was time. He was somewhat good natured, wriggling in our arms as Pastor Bonnie talked about how special he was to us and to his Father in heaven. She read the verse we had selected for him, Matthew 5:14, “You are the light of the world.” We chose it because Luke’s name means light and we wished that some day he would be a light for God. Scott, the worship pastor, prayed over our family as grandparents took pictures, aunts and uncles looked on, and our daughter Bethany looked up, holding the rose Bonnie brought for us for the occasion.
