Purpose
Relying on God's strength and provision, Chapel Hill Academy seeks to nurture Christ-like attitudes, provide excellence, and promote a Christ-centered environment.
Mission statement
To glorify God and assist families by providing a Christ-centered education which inspires and enables students to pursue spiritual maturity and academic excellence.
Statement of faith
We believe the Bible to be the inspired, the only infallible, authoritative Word of God, inerrant in the original manuscripts. We believe the inerrancy of Scripture embraces not only religious truth, but also the Bible's scientific, historical and literary features.
We believe that there is one God, eternally existent in three persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
We believe that creation was an act of God and not the result of evolution, theistic or otherwise. (This has no reference to changes within the species as defined in Genesis 1.)
We believe in the deity of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His virgin birth, in His sinless life, in His miracles, in His vicarious and atoning death through His shed blood, in His bodily resurrection, in His ascension to the right hand of the Father and in His personal return in power and glory.
We believe that for the salvation of lost, sinful men, regeneration by the Holy Spirit is absolutely essential.
We believe in the present ministry of the Holy Spirit by whose indwelling the Christian is enabled to live a Godly life.
We believe in the resurrection of both the saved and the lost; they who are saved unto the resurrection of life, and they who are lost to the resurrection of damnation.
We believe in the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ.
