Hi! I'm Matt France, the High School Pastor here at hillside community church. We've heard all of the excuses for teenagers not wanting to get plugged into a youth ministry. It's boring….I won't know anyone….all the people who go to church are nerds. We're ready for all of those excuses.

We've designed a youth ministry where your child will not only have fun but will grow in character and spiritual maturity in the process.

Just give us a call or drop us an e-mail and we'll have one of our leaders call or write your teenager and personally invite him or her to an upcoming event. Then we'll have another student – one of your teenager's peers – give your son or daughter a call and invite them to the event.

We'll be right there with you throughout the whole process, sharing with you any information that might help you get your teenager connected. We'll give you names of other students at your child's school who come to the services on the weekend. We'll even have other teens at the front of the youth room when your child comes in so that they have someone to sit with.
