South Coast cares about all children—especially yours!
We are excited that you are interested in dedicating your child to the Lord! The purpose of Child Dedication is for parents to present their child before God & the church, committing to seek after His grace & wisdom in carrying out their responsibilities with the support of the church community. Baby Dedication is held every fifth Sunday during the 11:30 AM service.
Every child can have a personal relationship with Jesus, and in South Coast Kids we encourage them to make a decision to follow Him. Our children are encouraged to not just learn about Jesus but learn from Him by walking with Him everyday. Water Baptism is the public declaration of your child’s internal decision to follow Christ. We advise parents to wait until their child can answer the following questions before being baptized:
1. When did you decide to follow Jesus and become His forever friend?
2. What does it mean to be water baptized?
We also have video resource we encourage parents to watch with their child that helps explain what Water Baptism means. Click below to watch with your child!
