Dear Parents of Hope,

Have you had a baby recently or added a member to your family through adoption? Our next Parent/Child Dedication service is scheduled for Sunday, November 13 and you are welcome to participate.

As part of the preparation process, you are invited to join Pastor Matt Ryniker and Children’s Ministry Director, Hala Tompkins for an evening of encouragement and equipping as you prepare to dedicate the newest member of your family to the Lord Jesus. We will meet on Wednesday, October 26 from 6-7:30 pm at Hope Chapel.

Sign up for the class and childcare by contacting Hala today!

If your child/ren have expressed a desire to be baptized this year and could not participate in the August baptism service, here is another opportunity:

The baptism classes (taught by Pastor Matt)  are scheduled. Class one will meet on September 17 from 9:30-11. Class two will meet on Wednesday, September 28, from 6-7:30pm. Parents are strongly encouraged to attend these classes with their children. Childcare is provided by contacting Hala.

The baptism service will be on October 9 will be followed by an outdoor water fun day on our playground, as is our custom.

Remember that we’ve designed the baptism classes to help parents decide whether or not their children are ready for baptism. If you are unsure about whether or not this is the right year, class number one will help you decide.

Adults who would like to be baptized should simply contact Pastor Matt. He will be happy to talk with you!

Let Hala know if you have any kid-related questions!
