The Faith Stepping Stone program is designed around
the faith milestones families celebrate as their child grows. Parents
make the promise printed below when their child is baptized, and
our congregation also makes a promise to support the parents as
they raise this child that is a gift from God.
Each step includes education and instruction with the parents and
the child, a gift from the congregation, and the blessing of each
family during Sunday morning worship.

Parent’s
Baptismal Promise
Taken from the Lutheran Book of Worship
In Christian love you have presented these children
for Holy Baptism. You should, therefore, faithfully bring
them to the services of God’s house, and teach them
the Lord’s Prayer, the Creed, and the Ten Commandments.
As they grow in years, you should place in their hands the
Holy Scriptures and provide for their instruction in the Christian
Faith, that, living in the covenant of their Baptism and in
communion with the Church, they may lead godly lives until
the day of Jesus Christ. Do you promise to fulfill these obligations? |
