We do not baptize or christen babies at Bay Park, we only dedicate them. Dedication is intended as a proclamation of the parent’s/guardian’s faith and intention to raise (disciple) their child to be a Christ follower with the support of the Church.
Next Steps:
Email the church office indicating your interest in baby dedication. This email must include a brief paragraph outlining why the desire for a baby dedication and what a baby dedication means to you asparent(s)/guardian(s).
The church office will forward the request to the relevant pastoral staff and elders board. A copy of the baby dedication script will be sent to you.
Either one pastoral staff or one elder will meet with you, the parent(s)/guardian(s), walking through the script. You must affirm that you can answer the questions of commitment included in the script provided with honesty and integrity in order to proceed.
If the parent(s)/guardian(s) feel prepared and have no more questions a baby dedication date will be set in conjunction with the office and Worship Pastor.
