Greetings:

We would like to have a child dedication as part of our service on Christmas Eve. 

In the UU tradition, one of the things we celebrate on Christmas is the love and hope born into the world with every child, and the importance of offering gifts of blessing to the children of our community. 

A child dedication is a short ceremony where parents and other caregivers stand with their child at the front of the sanctuary, and the community offers a blessing of care. 

Child dedications are often done with infants or toddlers, but are not restricted by age, as they are a way for a community to recognize and honor a new child.

Please email minister@wsuu.org or dre@wsuu.org if you would like your child to be dedicated, for more information, and if you have any questions.

In gratitude,

Rev. Carter Smith & Leilani Davenberry
