Birth

FIRST STEPPING STONE

Birth - Faith Milestone 1The birth of a child is celebrated at Living Springs as a Sacred Home Milestone.  Each baby is given a hand knitted hat with the following prayer attached ; Creator of all life, thank you for this new soul you have sent to us!  Bless this little one with love and health.  Guide this child onto the path that leads to You.  Our congregation celebrates the joy with the family by placing a single rose on the altar and praying for the new addition to our church family.

"but Jesus said, ‘Let the little children come to me, and do not stop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of heaven belongs.’ - Matthew 19:14

We seek to find new ways to engage and empower our families to hear Christ’s call to “let the little children come” and to welcome them with open arms and opportunities to grow in faith and love, right from the start.
