Child dedication takes place February 11 – 18. Child Dedication is much more than just praying for God to bless our kids. It’s a ceremony where parents make a public declaration to dedicate themselves to the Lord and commit to raising their child according to God’s Word. The Child Dedication ceremony does not include baptism. Please call ahead to (845)534-3278 to confirm your registration and attendance at the ceremony before making travel arrangements for your family members to attend!
Water baptism will take place on February 25. Water Baptisms are held four times each year during our Sunday service. Let all those family and friends celebrating with you to tell one of our ushers that they’re here for your baptism, and we would be happy to seat them together with a great view of the ceremony!
Prior to baptism it’s important that all those signed up for baptism have completed our Advance Discipleship Class 101 or attend a 30 minute informational meeting at 1:30 p.m. on the Sunday before your baptism date.
