Youth Ministry at Fourth Presbyterian Church
Thanks for Your Hard Work!
Way to rock the Bake Sale last Sunday! We set a goal of $2000 for this year's Bake Sale Fundraiser, and we totally made that. Thanks to all of the energetic work of you youth and the delicious support of all you parents, we're this much closer to our fundraising goal for the summer trips to Cuba, Detroit, and Montreat. Way to go!
 
Sunday Youth Fellowship
This week Confirmation is away on retreat, so there's no Confirmation class at 10:00 a.m. Choir is still on at 9:30 a.m., though, and so is the 10:00 a.m. creative activity in Bumpus, which this week includes those massive Stations of the Cross posters.

Senior High will meet at Bumpus at 11:00 a.m.--with bagels at 10:45 a.m.--and Junior High will meet this week in Room 5G (note that this is a change from the normal room), with bagels at 10:45 a.m.

See you Sunday!
 
Cuba Trip Meeting Canceled
This Sunday's meeting for Cuba trip participants has been canceled. Please be on the lookout next week for an email from Shelley with documents to read through. Our next meeting will be on Sunday, April 9.
 
Sunday Morning Bagels
It's a new month so we are asking for more sponsors for our Sunday morning bagels. Click here to sponsor a week's worth of bagels for either the Junior High or Senior High youth group.   
 
Youth Pancake Breakfast Signups
Now that the Bake Sale is done, we're gearing up for our Pancake Breakfast on Sunday, March 19. This is always our biggest and most profitable fundraiser. All youth and parents are invited and encouraged to sign up for at least one shift on the day of the fundraiser, as well as an additional shift to sell tickets during Coffee Hour on one of the two Sundays prior to the breakfast (especially if you're going to be going on a trip this summer).

You can sign up here. Youth can also receive volunteer hours for this project; just make sure to let Shelley know about it. Sign up quick before the spot you want is gone!

A Work of Love: April 21-22
Join Rocky, Katie, and the Junior High youth of the Presbytery of Chicago for A Work Of Love, April 21-22. We will be spending the night on Friday, April 21 at First Presbyterian Church of Libertyville and volunteering all day Saturday in the northwest suburbs. The suggested contribution per student for this event is $75 ($50 to support the Presbytery youth ministry and $25 to pay for our van rental).

For more info, click here. You can register online here. You will also need to complete and return a medical release form for Fourth Church (if you haven't already), as well as a covenant and medical release for the trip.

Please return all forms to Rocky by Wednesday, March 22.
