we commit...


on October 7 after four amazing parent classes we were blessed to dedicate you to the Lord. it was a wonderful ceremony that gave us an opportunity to stand before other parents, friends and family and commit before God to be the parents you deserve. we will work and pray everyday to fulfill this commitment..

Proverbs 22:6 (NLT)
Direct your children onto the right path, and when they are older, they will not leave it.

We commit to being the parents that God intended for you. We commit to living our lives according to God's will. That we may be examples of living with God-fearing hearts and purpose driven lives led by the holy spirit. We commit to reading the bible with you, to equip you as you grow. Proverbs 9:10 (NLT)"Fear of the Lord is the foundation of wisdom. Knowledge of the Holy One results in good judgment." We commit to praying for you daily, that you may grow to know Christ intimately, that you may raise your hands in praise because your heart is lifted by your love for The Lord and not because we told you to do it. That you may pursue a relationship with Christ and not religion. We look forward to praying on our knees as a family and hearing you say your first Dear Lord, your first Jesus, and your first Amen. We commit to honoring God for the blessing that is you by making this commitment today.
