What are baby dedications? 

Baby dedications are a wonderful and special time when members of Clearwater Community Church acknowledge that their child is a great gift from God!  

The act of dedicating a child to God was a common practice in Old and New Testament times.  As believers in Christ, we dedicate children for many of the same reasons because it is:  

• An opportunity for parents to acknowledge God’s incredible blessing of children as a gift from God.  (Psalm 127:3)
• A formal recognition that the child belongs to God. (Psalm 24:1)
• A public commitment on the part of the parents and body of Christ to teach God’s Word and encourage them in their spiritual development.  (Deut. 6:5-7)
• A challenge for parents to raise and discipline their children according to God’s standards.  (Ephesians 6:4)

How do I go about getting my baby dedicated? 

• Clearwater provides four baby dedications during the 10:45am service per year (dates are listed on the baby dedication application).
• Please fill out and submit the application at least 10 days before the scheduled dedication.
• Clearwater will call or e-mail you to confirm dates, times and answer any of your questions.
• We schedule no more than four baby dedications at a time, so you may want to turn your application in as soon as possible.

If you have any questions, please contact Tommy Ray at tray@clearwatercommunity.com.
