Here are some pictures from the dedication. They say "I Will Be Here" by Steven Curtis Chapman starting off. A song that is often at weddings but really fit for raising kids too.
During our part of the dedication our pastor, Jeff, was great getting down and talking directly to Sierra during her part. Love how great he is with kids.
Then he shared his heart about Wyatt too.
After each family went up front they had us all stand up and they had a poem/prayer to say over the kids. They had to specifically touch parts of their body as we prayed. Here is the prayer below:
A Child's Prayer
by: Jennifer Moore
May the Lord give you a head of knowledge,
intelligence, and wisdom...
Ears to hear the Good News...
Eyes of compassion...
A nose of discernment...
A heart for Christ's home...
A body as a temple...
Arms and hands to serve...
And legs and feet to walk His will in righteousness.
Then they had us come together as family and close friends to pray together over the kids.
Some family of four shots.
McLaughlin side of the family...
Uttz side of the family.
All in all a special time and we were thankful to have family there with us.
