1 Church in 2 Languages

That is the way Capitol Hill functions every day.  We are one body of believers sharing one purpose for the glory of God.  Every other month when we celebrate the Lord’s Supper we spend our worship time together.  It is always a blessing to express worship to God in two languages, and to have our entire church family together in one room at one time.  It is with great anticipation that we look forward to worshiping as 1 Church in 2 Languages this Sunday morning.

Worship Pastor Search Process

The Personnel Committee submitted a list of names to our deacons last week.  The Deacon Body met and approved the list.  From that list five names will be submitted to the church for approval, after they have been contacted regarding their willingness to serve.  Once five church members have agreed to serve if elected, then a Special Called Member’s Meeting will occur in which we can elect a Search Committee.  Continue praying for the Lord to select the right people to serve on this committee, and for His direction in the process of calling a new pastoral staff member.

Voice of the Martyrs

Every year we have taken groups to serve at the Voice of the Martyrs (VOM) Headquarters in Bartlesville, Oklahoma.  This trip always coincides with Spring Break for our schools.  This year the trip is March 19-21.  Details and registration are on the website.  Just click on this link: VOM.  There will be an informational meeting this Sunday after the morning service.  Payment deadlines, and a volunteer form are accessible on the website. 

Equip Classes

CHBC Spring Equip Classes started last week.  Equip Classes serve the purpose of multi-generational learning and discipleship.  Each class is designed to not only foster greater understanding of the Bible as it relates to a specific area or topic, but to bring together people of different ages from across the church family.  The classes are also a way for you to bring a lost friend, or unchurched person to begin interacting with your church family in a smaller and relaxed setting.  You can see the list of classes by following this link: CHBC Equip Classes.

Equipping Believers

One of the Three Purposes of Capitol Hill Baptist Church is to Equipping Believers to be able to follow Christ.  There are many opportunities of personal growth and discipleship available.  Our Equip Classes have become an important part of the training ministry for CHBC.  I would encourage you to not only attend, but look around for someone with whom you want to follow Jesus with.  Do you have a friend at church, in your neighborhood, at work, or in your gym that you want to be able to discuss the Bible with, and share in mutual encouragement around Christ?  An Equip class would be a great way to set aside time each week with that person.  Let the teaching ministry of the church aid you in being a disciple maker.  Invite people to Sunday School, or to Equip Classes.  To see the offering of classes for this Spring follow the link: Equip Classes.

Sunday Worship

Your walk with Christ is incomplete without gathering with the body of Christ.  Sunday worship is not an event.  The church gathered is what we see commanded and patterned in the New Testament.  We are the church, and much of the week we are scattered into the world to evangelize and make disciples.  But, each wee the body gathers to share with one another what God is doing in their lives, to rest from the weariness of living in the world, but not of the world, to corporately proclaim their steadfast belief in Jesus Christ, and to be encouraged by hearing the word of God.  Do not miss those moments of engaging the body of Christ.
