First Friday Tonight: B.Y.O.C. (Bring Your Own Chili)

Are you up to your ears in white lights, wrapping paper and the chorus of "All I Want for Christmas"? Are you craving not eggnog and candy canes, but perhaps, a heaping bowl of, say, chili? If so, dig out your best recipe -- be it Cincinnati style, Flamin' Texas, or veggie -- and bring your entry to First Friday. If you’re still honing your personal chili recipe, simply come and enjoy the chili of fellow parishioners. Tonight at 6 p.m. in Upper Norton Hall, childcare provided. If you'll need childcare, please email Rev. Ross Kane.
