$30. This includes: a digital download of your child's dedication, a children’s Bible, a special photo of your child taken during his/her dedication, and a parenting message from Pastor Ken. (This is also what holds your child's spot as dedication spots are limited). The $30 covers the first child; each additional sibling is $10 there after.
We believe baptism is a choice to follow Jesus and must be made by the person being baptized. Very young children do not yet make life choices.
It is an opportunity for Christian parents to bring their young children before God and commit themselves to providing a Christian home and training for these children so that when they are mature enough to make decisions they will choose God and salvation through Jesus. It is actually a parents’ commitment to God, understanding their responsibility to their children before God.
We dedicate children several times a year after the second service. Families need to register online for a dedication class and date in order to participate.
We allow up to a max of 4 additional adults to accompany you on stage during your child's dedication. These 4 people are not required but may be Grandparents, Godparents, and/or other family or close friends. Please note, children under the age of 12 cannot be one of the additional 4 people on stage.

Cathedral of Faith is where the love is lived out. A place where you can find that no-strings-attached service the Bible talks about. Love without any gimmicks. It’s real.
Cathedral of Faith serves the city of Milpitas in a variety of ways. Cathedral of Faith has also adopted the Selwyn Park area as a part of the city of Milpitas’ Adopt-A-Neighborhood program.
The following is a list of ways to get involved in blessing this neighborhood:
Milpitas is nicknamed the “crossroads of the Silicon Valley” because it is a busy, exciting, crossroads (680/237/880) community. There are more than 70,000 residents but during the day it’s population doubles as people come to work and shop in Milpitas.
Our mission is to show God's love by serving the city of Milpitas, worshipping together, and making disciples.
This ministry shares the love of Jesus Christ during our quarterly “come dine on us” dinners. We serve over 500 people during each event. We partner with Martha’s Kitchen, Shirley’s Closet, St. Vincent De Paul and other organizations to help feed anyone in need.
We collect and distribute gently used clothing for children & adults, to anyone who is in need of a jacket, scarf, pants, shoes, etc. We reach out to the community every quarter to spread some genuine love and compassion to those in need. At each event we will focus on a specialty item such as back to school supplies, toys at Christmas, jackets in winter, etc.
We are partnering with Second Harvest Food to offer 160 families approximately 140 pounds of food given out every 2nd Tuesday of each month. You must qualify with Second Harvest to obtain food from this pantry.
Each year we participate with a booth at Taste of Morgan Hill. Our evangelism team is very creative in loving the city of Morgan Hill. It’s a great time to share the love of Jesus with your neighbor.

I think all of us would like our kids to love Jesus, be happy, be good people, and follow their dreams. That’s entirely a possible outcome. But when we don’t long for our kids first and foremost to know and love Jesus by prioritizing the nature of our parenting then our kid’s spiritual development simply will not be what it could have been. What a huge loss that would be!
Let Matthew 16:26, be a reminder that absolutely nothing matters more than helping our kids know and love Jesus. Because when they have Jesus, they have everything.
