Parent-Child Dedications

We are deeply committed to helping parents as they strive to raise their children in a way that brings God honor. We offer Parent & Child Dedication services as a special time of public ceremony and personal commitment when parents can promise to raise their child in the training and instruction of the Lord.

First Grade Bible Presentation

 We believe that God’s Word is Truth and it serves as the foundation for our worldview and as the primary influence in our decision-making, including our decision for eternal life through the sacrifice of Jesus. So, we would like to help you equip your 1st grader’s faith journey by presenting him or her with a new Bible during a very special Sunday service.

  1. Bibles will be presented in the fall.
  2. Choose a life verse for your child and submit it to debbie.meyer@centralsf.org no later than one week prior to the ceremony.

We will contact you with more details after we receive your registration form.


Discover (Baptism) Class

We believe that Bible teaches that a child receives salvation through a personal relationship with Jesus. Personal faith and salvation are not passed down from parent to child, nor are they as a result of participating in a baptismal ceremony. Instead, baptisms are an opportunity for the follower of Jesus to tell others they have joined God’s family through personal faith.

  3. Write a personal testimony (150 words or less) and submit it to debbie.meyer@centralsf.org no later than one week prior to the ceremony.
