Connor's Dedication















Eric and I had Connor dedicated to the Lord today. We had flowers on the altar for his special day to celebrate his life and his dedication. If you are wondering, this isn't the same as baptism. Dedicating him is to do just that dedicate him to the Lord as well as make an outward vow to Connor that we will raise him into a loving Christian home and church family. A baptism is for after Connor has received Christ. He is too little; for he doesn't understand at this point of his life. When he is old enough to understand and if he chooses to receive Jesus Christ as his personal Lord and Savior, than to give an outward testimony of the change that has happened inside of him he can choose to be baptized. Baptism will not save Connor; it is only by confessing the Lord Jesus Christ that will save him. Please pray for him and for us as we raise this sweet little boy, Connor William Peters.
