Chapel

Elementary Chapel

Chapel is a time when the entire elementary school gathers as a community for a time of worship and learning. The speakers will include various area pastors, teachers, and some chapels will be led by individual classes or small groups of students. Older elementary students can choose to help with chapel services by helping lead musical worship, presenting dramatic skits, or helping run the technological aspects of chapel. All students are expected to be respectful, engaged participants during chapel time. Chapels will generally occur twice a month on Thursday mornings from 8:30-9:00.

Middle and High School Chapel

Chapel services are meant to be a joyful Christian experience. To receive true blessing from the chapel time, students are encouraged to bring a positive attitude, to participate enthusiastically, and to listen attentively. Chapel should be a place that is reverent and worshipful.

  • Chapels will typically be held on Fridays from 8:30-9:15.
  • Students are encouraged to participate on the chapel committee, to present in chapel, or participate on the praise teams.
  • Students may be asked to bring a Bible to chapel.

Devotions and Discipleship

Devotions  

Many teachers begin each day by leading a time of devotions and prayer time. The format will vary from day to day but will usually include Bible reading, a devotional, singing, and prayer. On occasion, students in middle and high school are asked to lead devotions for their squad.

Squads (MS and HS) and Small Groups (Elementary) 

Small groups are a part of our discipleship program at Central.

  • Each group is led by a teacher, staff member, or a community member.
  • Elementary small groups meet weekly every other week, opposite of chapel days. Students also sit in their small groups for elementary chapels.
  • MS and HS Squads meet daily.
  • Activities and discussion follow monthly topics and school-related themes.
