Question 1

Do I need to be a member to dedicate my child?

Answer

You do not need to be a member of Ironbridge to dedicate your child. We do recommend taking our Starting Point class and ask that families call Ironbridge home, because in dedicating your child to God, you are stating that you are willing to partner with God and the Church to raise your child in cooperation with God’s intentions. As your church family, we are here to partner with you as the body of Christ and support you as a family unit.

Question 2

At what age can a child take part in a dedication service?

Answer

While Ironbridge doesn’t have a set age requirement for a child dedication, the average age for a child to be dedicated is 3 years and younger. Although, many parents dedicate children much older than that due to wanting to dedicate all children at the same time or the parents are new believers in Christ. Our service is designed around and geared toward families of young children.

Question 3

Can I invite family and friends to the service?

Answer

Absolutely! You will find that this will enhance the significance of the service for you and will also give them an opportunity to witness your own faith in Jesus Christ.

Question 4

What is appropriate attire for this service?

Answer

You can come dressed up as you’d like or as informal as you’d like, it’s entirely up to you. Feel free to dress as though you were coming to one of our regular Sunday morning services.
