You make ministry happen every single week, and we can’t wait to rally together.

Child Dedications
Child Dedications are a special moment for parents to publicly commit to raising their children to know and follow Jesus. At Abundant Life Church, children can be dedicated as babies or even as young children, as families choose to set their child apart to the Lord. During the dedication, parents commit to raising their child in the “fear and instruction of the Lord,” while our church family commits to supporting them along the way. We believe kids should grow in faith in an environment where they are loved, encouraged, and free to be kids as they learn about God. Sign up to dedicate your child at an upcoming service.
