CHILD DEDICATION THIS SUNDAY

11/6/2018

 
Five families are dedicating their children this Sunday (Nov 11). They are making a commitment to move toward God in their journey of life and to encourage their children to come along as they do. This is a special time not only for these families, but also for us as a community to pray and bless these children in their path with God. -- We are honored and looking forward to celebrate with you all this Sunday!
