FAQ

I'M NEW, WHAT DO I DO?

First, we're so glad to have you join us. There's a special place at Colonial Hills for your child to worship and grow in Christ. When you arrive, please come to first time guest tent and a volunteer will bring you to CH Kids to help you get checked in.

WHAT IS CHILD DEDICATION?

We provide an enhanced child dedication experience for families which includes a dinner with teaching, worship, and a special time to pray over your child. For each of our child dedication events, registered families can join us for this special evening. Registration usually includes ten tickets, which you can use for your family and to invite other loved ones. (Additional tickets can be purchased for $10, which covers your guest’s dinner.) We are so excited for how this dedication experience allows us to offer more intentional programming and involve your family in a deeper way! If you have further questions regarding child dedication please email haley.thomas@colonialhills.church.

WHEN WILL MY CHILD MOVE FROM ONE ROOM TO THE NEXT?

Zeros to Ones - Generally these room transitions are based upon whether or not your baby is proficiently crawling/walking.

Ones to Fives - Once your child turns 1 year old, their room transitions are based upon age. For example, the day your child turns 3 years old he/she will move to the 3 year old room.

Kindergarten is a milestone event, so we have a special event to celebrate this big change! This event, Kickstart Kindergarten, usually takes place the Sunday before School starts back. Incoming kindergarteners will stay in their preschool class through the summer until Kickstart Kindergarten, at which time they will then be promoted to their new class.

Kindergarten to 5th grade - At the end of each school year, all current K-12 kids and students promote to their next grade. Our hope is for kids and students to begin building relationships with their new small group leaders over the summer before the school year kicks off. Kids moving into kindergarten, will move up in August as we have a special milestone celebration just for them called Kickstart Kindergarten.

IS MY CHILD READY FOR SALVATION? WHAT ABOUT BAPTISM?

We would love to meet with you and your family to talk about these decisions. Please email us at haley.thomas@colonialhills.church to set up a time.
