(Please complete the form at the bottom of the page if you are interested in having your baby dedicated at the Cathedral.)

We at the Cathedral International rejoice with you on the birth of your child. Children are a heritage from the Lord and we believe baby dedication is a solemn and serious undertaking. As a Christian Church, we have a biblical mandate to adhere to set forth in the Holy Scriptures regarding childbirth and marriage.

Therefore our policy is as follows:

  • All parents and godparents of the child are required to attend a Pre-Christening class. This Pre-Christening class is held every second (2nd) Tuesday of the month at 7:30 PM at the Cathedral Community Cornerstone Complex 205 Smith Street, Perth Amboy, New Jersey.
  • Godparents or parent that can not attend Pre-Christening class due to living out of state or working can be excused from the class. The parent(s) of the child will be instructed to explain their responsibilities. Please let the instructor of the class aware of the parent or godparent that has not attended class.
  • Children will be dedicated on the 2nd Sunday of the month during the 10:30 AM worship service in Perth Amboy, 7:30 am service in Asbury Park and 6:00 pm in Plainfield.
  • The parents of the child will receive a baby dedication certificate signed by the senior pastor or officiant that will christen the child and a special gift.
  • Age is not a factor when dedicating your child. Parents have rededicated their children at the beginning of their teen-age years, sweet 16 or five years old. It’s never too late.
  • Private dedications are available upon request according to the availability of a staff pastor or elder. Please complete the form below and you will be contacted shortly. If you have any questions, please call 732-826-5293 x1121.
