We encourage parents to dedicate their infants and young children! This is a special moment in which parents receive God’s blessing for their children and publicly commit to raise them in accordance with Scripture, surrounded and supported by a community of faith.
For kids who have decided to follow Jesus and have appropriate spiritual maturity and growth, water baptism is a beautiful next step. At Fount, we only baptize children who are at least 5 years old, but there is no exact age to choose baptism or dedication. We recommend talking to a Fount Kids or a Family Leader as you navigate this decision with your child, and kids who want to be baptized must speak with our Fount Kids Director.
