Parent Commissioning

Our next Parent Commissioning is happening on Sunday, May 7.

What is Parent Commissioning?

We believe that discipleship starts in the home. One way that we express this is by commissioning parents in our church body to be missionaries in their home with their children. We do a commissioning to begin a partnership with parents.

Our role is to be a partner for dad and mom. By creating a milestone of Parent Commissioning we begin a committed partnership between our parents and the church, where we look to be a third-party presence confirming to the kids what the parents are already teaching at home. That milestone doesn’t have to happen when they are babies, either. We regularly commission families with preschool, elementary, and even middle-school aged kids.

Parent commissioning is a time when our church commits to partner with parents of infants/young children. Together our whole church gets to celebrate their declaration to raise their kids “in the training and instruction of the Lord” (Ephesians 6:4). We look forward to commissioning these parents and partnering with these children to help the see and experience the love of Jesus throughout their lives.
