In the middle of October an extremely special and beautiful thing happened within the walls of Casa Teresa. Six mothers and seven babies joined together to dedicate their lives to Jesus Christ. Our Transformation one (T-1) and Transformation Two (T-2) moms filled the chapel surrounded by family members, volunteers, and staff members.
Amy, a volunteer who teaches our T-1 and T-2 moms bible study on Tuesday evenings, lead the ceremony and celebration. Opening with praise songs, Amy explained the important role that parents have when it comes to teaching their children how to follow the Lord. Each mother stood in front of the room, holding their baby, and made vows to honor the Lord and allow him to be the head of their households. Our moms promised to teach their child to walk in the ways of Jesus Christ and to practice reading and teaching the word of God. Each baby received a certificate of dedication signed by our chaplain, Amy, along with a book on how to educate children about the Lord. After the ceremony, all who attended were invited to fellowship in the downstairs Nutritional Center for snacks and refreshments. We would like to thank and recognize all the volunteers and staff members who made this event possible.
