FAMILY DAY, September 14th - In conjunction with this year's Family Day a Parent
Dedication Ceremony will take place on Sunday, September 14, immediately
following morning worship. The Parent Dedication Program is designed to
provide parents with an opportunity to publically affirm their commitment to
raise their children in a God-focused, Christ-centered home. This dedication ceremony is just a step in the journey
towards rearing godly children. The Marsalis Avenue congregation will
help parents honor their commitment to God by providing them with information
designed to guide and strengthen the family. Following the dedication
program, parents will be presented with a resource manual that will include
information on spiritual formation, family Bible studies, advice for discussing
difficult topics with children and more. If you would like to participate in the Parent Dedication
Ceremony, please email the names of the parents/guardians participating in the
ceremony and the names of your children to [email protected] or call (214)
