Parent/Child Dedication Milestone Class – Stepping Stone #1

Significant moments in life – rites of passage – milestones – are important in our children’s lives, yet we often commemorate such occasions with a passing “congratulations.” This is one of six Stepping Stone milestone classes Equipping Fireflies has developed to enable you to both celebrate with the children in your ministry and encourage and equip their parents.

Find all 6 Stepping Stone Classes here. 

One of the first key times in a parent’s life in your ministry is when they begin their family and express the desire to dedicate their child to the Lord. This is the perfect opportunity to make a first connection with new families and encourage and equip them with godly parenting principles.

The class teaches about biblical examples of parent/child dedication, how dedication to a child differs from salvation, and what the Bible says about marriage and parenting. It also provides an opportunity to share the gospel message with parents and to pray for both the child and the parents as they seek to train their children and provide a godly example for them to follow.
