Will's Dedication at Church - November 9, 2008


Will was dedicated at church on Sunday. In the Baptist church, baptism comes with a profession of faith, so parent/child dedication celebrates the parent's decision to raise him in a home where Christ is the center, the Bible is the authority and where God is honored. (Deut. 6:6-7) Our church does it a few times each year, but this was the first time Will was well enough to do it. Gramma , Grandaddy, Aunt Lauren and Denise came to see him up on stage. When we were introduced, Pastor Grant said, "Shelby, isn't this an answer to prayer." He and his wife Tammy had visited me in the hospital in the days before Will was born. Today was absolutely an answer to prayer and we are thankful to raise our son in such a God-centered environment.
