"Train up a child in the way he should go." Proverbs 22:6

Matt and I participated in our church's Parent/Baby Dedication Service to publicly declare our intentions to raise Luke in a Christian home and to commit ourselves to raise Luke according to the standards God has given us in His Word. We want Luke to know that God is SO much more than who we worship on Sundays. We want to serve Him, trust Him, and obey Him in every area of our lives! May God grant us much wisdom in parenting Luke and help him to know at an early age that he is a sinner and in need of God's saving grace!


These pictures were taken a couple of weeks later since I forgot to get a picture of him by himself. He was so patient to let me change his outfit just for this photo shoot.

The service had 2 parts. Each baby was presented on stage by Kelly, the Preschool Director. Then, Bro. Dean led the dedication. His grandchild was being dedicated so he was exceptionally excited :) The verses we picked for Luke were Psalm 139:14 & Matthew 5:16.

Grammie and I are very thankful that you and Matt desire to give Luke a Godly home and to point him to Christ!! May the Lord give you much help in the years to come.
Love you bigger,

What a blessing Luke is to us! I reiterate what Grampa says. You and Matt are such good parents and we are blessed beyond measure! Praise God from whom all blessings flow...
