Parent / Child Dedication

Parent / Child Dedication

February 16 // All Services
Parent Meeting // February 12 at 6:30PM

We believe in supporting the families at River Oak as they raise their children to know and love God. (Deuteronomy 6:5-9, Ephesians 6:4) One way we strive to support is through our Child Dedication services. Child Dedication is a public confession by the parents to train their children in the Christian faith as God has commanded. At the same time, the church body promises to support these parents in prayer and encouragement. Our dedication services happen 3 times a year during the worship services on Sunday. Parents and their child are introduced to the congregation to confirm their dedication and prayed over.

Typically, this dedication is for parents of babies through preschool age children. Please contact us if you have older children and would like to meet with one of our Pastors for a private time of dedication.

Thursdays January 9 – May 15 // 6 – 8PM // ROOM 121D

These videos are produced in an interesting-to-watch television magazine format featuring expert interviews, real-life case studies and on-location video.

A Support Group with Focus – After viewing the video, DivorceCare group participants spend time as a support group, discussing what was presented in that week’s video seminar and what is going on in the lives of group members.

Important dates: 
Jan 23 (CAST) – no groups
Apr 17 (Spring Break) – no groups
May 16 – end of the semester
