Family Dedication

Family dedication is a ceremony that expresses your desire as parents to pass your faith to your son or daughter through intentional spiritual formation. CCC's ParentLIFE Ministry wants to partner with you to accomplish this very goal.

Dedication is typically scheduled in the spring and fall. It is for families with children 2 and younger. All first-time participants need to attend an orientation class. This class will explain the purpose of dedication, what to expect during dedication and how ParentLIFE wants to help you succeed! Please email jennifermiller@chandlercc.org to register or with questions.

 

Family Dedication Weekend May 12-13
Required orientation on either Sunday, May 5th at 10:45 a.m. or Wednesday, May 8th at 6:45 p.m.
