On the morning of my first Mother's Day as a mom, we dedicated Claire at our church (Hill Country Bible Church Round Rock, which meets at the Round Rock YMCA).
That morning, Chris and I made a public statement that we will train Claire in the Christian faith.
Pastor Keith lead the congregation in a response that they, as a church family, will also seek to encourage us and all of the other new parents to bring up our children in the faith.
Chris and I are humbled and grateful for the opportunity to be parents. We truly want to invoke God's blessings upon Claire as we present her to Him.
The baby dedication service was a beautiful occasion reminding us and our buddies of the responsibilities, joys, and difficulties associated with nurturing our children.
