Please contact the church directly when you need confirmation about an upcoming service, event, program, or registration.
5. Plan Your Visit
The “Plan Your Visit” feature allows visitors to express interest in attending Chapel on the Hill.
Submitting a form does not create a contract, guarantee reserved seating, or require you to attend. It allows a church representative to contact you, answer questions, and help you prepare for your visit.
You are responsible for making sure the information you submit is accurate and belongs to you.
6. Events and Registrations
Certain church events or programs may require registration. Event availability may be limited and may be handled on a first-come, first-served basis.
Chapel on the Hill may:
Change an event’s date, time, location, speaker, or schedule
Limit attendance
Close registration
Cancel or postpone an event
Establish reasonable participation or safety requirements
Refuse or revoke registration when necessary for safety or proper operation
If an event requires payment, any event-specific payment or cancellation terms displayed during registration will also apply.

If online giving is available, donations may be processed by a third-party payment provider. By submitting a donation, you confirm that:
The payment information you provide is accurate
You are authorized to use the selected payment method
The donation amount is correct
You authorize the applicable payment processor to complete the transaction
Unless otherwise required by law or expressly approved by Chapel on the Hill, donations are generally final and nonrefundable.
If you believe a donation was made by mistake, entered for the wrong amount, or submitted without authorization, contact us as soon as possible. We will review the request but cannot guarantee that a payment can be reversed after it has been processed.
Any statement concerning the possible tax treatment of a donation is general information only. You are responsible for consulting a qualified tax professional regarding your individual circumstances.
Third-party payment processors may have their own terms, fees, privacy policies, and processing procedures. Chapel on the Hill is not responsible for a payment provider’s separate systems or policies.
8. Prayer Requests and Personal Messages
The website may allow visitors to submit prayer requests or personal messages.
Please do not use the website to report an emergency. In an immediate emergency, contact 911 or the appropriate emergency service.
Do not submit private information about another person without that person’s permission. Chapel on the Hill may share a prayer request with appropriate church leaders or prayer team members based on the options you select and the nature of the request.
We cannot guarantee that information sent through an online form or email will remain completely confidential.
9. Communications
When you submit your telephone number or email address, you may receive communications related to your request, visit, registration, donation, or church activity.
Promotional emails may include an unsubscribe option. You may opt out of promotional text messages by replying STOP when that option is available.

Message and data rates may apply to text messages.
