10:00 a.m. Youth Choir
10:30 a.m. All-Youth Community Time in the Bumpus Room
11:00 a.m. Junior High in Room 4G; Confirmation in Room 5A
See you Sunday!
The Ski Retreat Is January 12-14. Are You Down(hill)?
This is a once-a-year chance to get out of the city with fellow Fourth Church youth and friends, and head up to Cascade Mountain in Wisconsin for a Saturday of skiing.
It's great fun! We drive vans and rent a house and everything. All sixth- through twelfth-graders are invited. We're recommending a contribution toward the costs of $200 per person, but if you want to go, go; contribute what you can.

Are You a Chili Champion?
Our first fundraising for summer mission trips is Sunday, January 7, and it's a hot one. We're talkin' a room full of chili, all competing for the coveted Golden Ladle.
Email Rocky by Wednesday, December 27 to enter your chili.
Also, if you have chili cook-off organizing experience or opinions, I'll take you on the planning team.
Email Rocky ASAP and we'll get to work.
