We love children!
Children are important at Capitol Hill! That is why from birth on we are teaching children the Bible in kid-friendly environments. It is our mission to partner with parents to have each child to come to know, love, and serve God.
Sundays at CHBC
SUNDAY SCHOOL (BIRTH – 6 GRADE) 9:00 am
We have Sunday School for all ages. Children birth-Kindergarten meet in the Victory Village Preschool Area. Check-in at the Welcome Desk. Your child will receive a name tag and parents you will receive a receipt that allows only you to pick up the child. Siblings are not allowed to pick up preschoolers. Children from 1st thru 6th grade meet in classrooms along the children’s hallway.
Come a few minutes early to check in if it’s your first time with us!
EXTENDED TEACHING CARE (BIRTH - 3 YEARS) 10:15 am
Children are always welcome in our worship services, but you may place your children (birth – 3) in our Extended Teaching Care during the service. This allows our trained childcare workers to pray for our smallest children, sing songs with them, and read Bible stories to them while their parents are in the worship service.
Children age 4 and above come to “big church” and are able to worship with their parents and the rest of the church.
CAMP BIG ENOUGH
Each August our four year-olds begin attending the worship service with their parents. As a way to prepare parents and their children for this transition, we have a “Camp Big Enough” class that gives parents some helpful tips about parenting in the pew and introduces children to what happens in a worship service. Kids love getting their “Big Church Bags” full of quiet activities and snacks that they can use during the service.
Wednesdays at CHBC
AWANA (Ages 3 - 6th grade) 5:55 - 7:30 pm - during the school year
AWANA is our Wednesday Night children’s program which features Scripture memory, missions, Bible stories, and games. It is a great place for children to connect. They are learning to connect to God, His word, and to others. We also have fun theme nights, a family Christmas party, and the Grand Prix.
AWANA provides a wonderful tool for parents to disciple their children at home.
Registration happens in the main hall for children’s age K-6th Grade. After check-in, head to the Activities Center for Opening Ceremonies. Pre-K and under check-in at the Preschool Welcome Desk. Check-in starts at 5:45. Children need to be on the AWANA square in the Activities Center by 5:55pm.
