The Commitment

Minister to the Parents: In presenting your child to the Lord, do you promise in dependence upon God's grace and upon the partnership of the church, to teach her the truths of the Christian faith, to set a Christian example before her, to bring her up in the instructions and discipline of the Lord, and to encourage her to accept Christ as her Saviour under the guidance of the Holy Spirit? Minister to the congregation: Do you, as members of the church, promise to join these parents in the teaching and training of this child that she may be led to the Lord when age of accountability presents itself? If you accept this responsibility, will you indicate it by standing.
