Chapel Summers
Summertime...and the livin' is - exciting!
Some of Chapel on the Hill's regular programs go on hiatus over the summer - but others kick into high gear.
Chapel's youth group, Cross Culture, had their infamous "Lock-In" - yes, most of the kids stayed up all night! It started out with one of Mr. Mark's legendary tail-gate picnics (the tail gate that's been everywhere from Mississippi to Autumn Blaze...)
The highlight of the night (and that's saying a lot) was Star 99.1's Radio Personality David A. Dein.
David shared with the kids how he got into radio - and what Jesus Christ means to him. His humor, honesty and encouragement were used by God to touch our kids' hearts.
The give-aways were a hit, too!
And what's a Lock-In without going out? We headed over to Boonton for some Midnight Bowling:
laser lights, mirror balls, music, the works.
Then it was on back to church for a snowball fight.
(Snow? in summer? Leave it to Bethany and Nate to come up with this. The snowballs were knee-hi's filled with flour, and tied. And yes, they cleaned it up.)

The Ladies Fellowship had their annual Banquet,
with a veritable feast of culinary and baked delights
and an evening of song and message that thrilled and inspired everyone who came.

Chapelccino is a monthly celebration at Chapel -
and for Father's Day, the women decided to honor the men with a fabulous spread. They cooked up all the guys' favorites -
French toast, SPAM, made-from-scratch fried doughnuts, and even fruit smoothies, for good measure.

Our start-of-summer church picnic was held on the church grounds,
with lots
and lots of food
in sunshiny abundance, and fellowship
from grown-ups
to kids
to the littlest ones...

The newest addition to the Chapel calendar has been our Friday Nights at the Movies. We've had the popcorn machine popping as we've split our sides over Thou Shalt Laugh, and cheered and cried our way through Facing the Giants. This week, we'll travel back in time with Queen Esther in One Night With The King. And in August and September, we'll see the work of Michael Landon, Jr., in Love Comes Softly, sequel Love's Enduring Promise, and the fresh-from-the-theaters and not-to-be-missed powerful adaptation of Francine Rivers' novel The Last Sin-Eater.

Our most important program is on Sunday morning - when we worship together,
sing praises to God,
read His Word
and study it together.
And our Pastor's messages can be heard even if you're not able to join us each Sunday!
