Our History

Chapel Hill Fellowship was founded by members of the former Bethel United Methodist Church in Wichita, Kansas who had a vision to reach the growing outer northeast area of Wichita.

The first Chapel Hill service was held Sunday, October 1, 1995 at Wichita Collegiate High School. Approximately 43 acres of undeveloped land at the northwest corner of 13th Street North and K-96 Highway was purchased by the Wichita United Methodist District Union with support from the Kansas West Conference of the United Methodist Church.

A groundbreaking service for the new church home was held Sunday, October 18, 2001 on the site of the new building with more than 300 people in attendance.

After nearly a year of construction, Chapel Hill opened the doors to it's new sanctuary on October 6, 2002 for it's first service to standing room only of over 500 people!
