      <image:title>Youth - Youth group.</image:title>
      <image:caption>Here at Hilltop we are excited to have a middle school and a high school youth group, meeting on Wednesday evenings throughout the school year.  Typically, middle school youth meet from 6 p.m.-7:30 p.m., starting with a quick supper that can be anything from delivered pizza to pancakes and sausage. Our kids LOVE this time of fellowship, and we are so thankful to have many parents donate time preparing the Wednesday night meal for us.  After eating, we will head downstairs to the youth room for games, discussion and prayer.  Our high school students meet from 7:30-8:30 p.m. and have snacks and drinks provided. Often they will come with homework studies and will spend time visiting and sharing stories of their day as they wind down from their hectic schedules. We are excited to have relevant discussions, games and time of prayer for one another.  Both groups are very involved in supporting our local missions: serving the Banquet, serving the Nightwatch Canteen, packing meals for Kids Against Hunger and a favorite mission night of Random Acts of Kindness, to name a few.  We have a great group of youth here at Hilltop and are thankful when they invite their friends!</image:caption>
