Spirit Hill Church School
Spirit Hill is a place where each child's individual strengths and talents are recognized and used as a springboard for developing their relationship with God.

Kindergartners
Under the guidance of nurturing and experienced teachers, children
learn the epic Bible stories through storytelling, art and music
activities in self-contained classrooms.
1st through 6th Graders
Named by AHCC's children, the Spirit Hill program is based on a
rotation model where children are immersed in a fully interactive
learning experience - learning through art, drama, film,
storytelling, music, movement, cooking, outreach, Bible study and
worship. First through sixth graders rotate each week through rooms
transformed into a temple, grill, art center and movie room, where
they study one epic Bible story for a four-week period. Children
receive the benefit of learning the Bible lesson with a variety of
teachers, while "shepherds," church volunteers from teenagers to
grandparents, attend church school with one class for an entire
curriculum year, providing a constant presence and familiar,
friendly face.
Spirit Hill depends on volunteers from our membership. In fact,
there are nearly 150 people who give their time teaching, being
shepherds or helping in other ways. These adults are engaged,
enthusiastic and caught up in the Spirit. No special skills are
needed. You just need to love children and be willing to help them
with their faith journey.
Spirit Hill is a place where each child's individual strengths and
talents are recognized and used as a springboard for developing
their relationship with God.
