Children are a wonderful heritage and blessing from the Lord!
Psalm 127:3 says “Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.”
The purpose of a Parent-Child Dedication is a time specially for parents to present their children before God and the church, seeking His grace and wisdom to undertake their responsibilities to be godly parents who will commit to model what having a relationship with Jesus, following and loving Jesus looks like and to raise them in His ways and be rooted in a spiritual community.
孩童奉献礼的目的是为了让父母在上帝和教会面前献上他们的孩子,寻求上帝的恩典和智慧来承担做敬虔父母的责任。这些父母将致力于树立与耶稣建立关系、跟随耶稣,以及爱耶稣所爱的榜样,并按照祂的道路养育孩子们,让孩子们扎根于属灵的社群中

Common Questions (常见问题)
Who can sign up for Parent-Child Dedication 2024? (谁可以报名2024年的孩童奉献礼)
Is Dedication the same as Water Baptism? (孩童奉献礼是否与水洗礼相同?)
Hope Singapore believes that water baptism is for those who have made a personal decision to trust Jesus alone for their salvation, once they have the maturity and ability to understand what that means and publicity declare their faith. Parent-Child Dedication is a time specially for parents to present their children before God and the church, seeking His grace and wisdom to undertake their responsibilities to be godly parents.
新加坡希望教会认为,水洗礼是为那些已经做出个人决定,仅依靠耶稣来得着救赎的人准备的,前提是他们已经有理解这是什么意义的成熟度和能力,并且可以公开承认他们的信仰。孩童奉献礼是专为父母在上帝和教会面前献上他们的孩子,寻求祂的恩典和智慧来承担做敬虔父母责任的特别时刻.
