Andrew Chapman's Dedication Verse

(just wanted to document this lest I forget it).

4-19-09

We had Andrew dedicated this morning at church. At our church when a baby is dedicated, the parents of the child are to choose a Bible verse for their child and the father reads that verse in front of the church over the child. This is the verse we chose for Andrew (that Adrian read): 

Ephesians 3:14-19 

"For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom his whole family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."
