    In December, the youth had a wonderful Christmas party at the Whitaker house. We collectedpersonal hygiene items for residents at Meadows Manor East. Singing Christmas carols is always ahighlight of the party. Thank you to the Whitakers for graciously hosting us.

    This year has now drawn to an end, and what a memorable year it was for theyouth! We collected canned goods and money for food banks during our Souper Bowl of Caring,had an awesome lock-in, created memorable worship services for Youth Sunday, and rocked theDangling Duo course at our yearly kickoff. Traveling to Lexington, Kentucky for our mission tripwill forever be a great memory for me and all participants. And this is just a few of the awesomethings we did this year! Thanks to everyone for a fantastic year.

    Beginning January 1, I will be back from maternity leave. Thanks to all who made it pos-sible for me to spend precious time with my little Hannah. I am especially grateful to Erin Pugh forher hard work making sure everything continued in my absence.

    Isn't it exciting beginning anew year? It's natural to look forward toimportant dates and activities in the fu-ture, but we also like to look back andrecall memories from the past. CPCCrafters have many pleasant memories ofhours spent planning for our annual holi-day bazaar and miss that time spent to-

    gether. Dates have been reserved on thechurch calendar to have monthly opportunities to meet, socialize, and plan

    for future events. The fourth Wednesdaymorning of the next severalmonths will be craft days. You may have a skill or project to share, newideas to improve the bazaar, or perhaps you would like to spend some quali-ty time having lunch and getting to know other church women. You are allwelcome! Our first 2015 get together is on Wednesday, January 28th at10 A.M. We hope you will include those plans in your schedule.
