InterHigh’s RISE! Recap

This past Saturday was InterHigh Fellowship’s kickoff event called RISE: Take a Stand for Jesus. For those of you who don’t know, InterHigh is a new ministry whose mission is to come alongside local Bay Area churches to help equip youth students defend and live out their faith in an increasingly hostile environment. InterHigh was born from the burden and vision of Pastor Ed Kang (who became Christian as a troubled youth) and Kelly Kang to help the Christian youth of our generation.

RISE was awesome: rocking jumping praise, Sean McDowell talking about truth to a rapt audience, hilarious skit about deficient forms of Christianity, energy and excitement all around from 370 new kids, parents, youth leaders, pastors who came, as well as from all our college student mentors. Isaiah from Koinonia wrote a recap of RISE so I’ll let him explain in detail. Here are some pictures from RISE as well.

What was the most memorable part of the event, for those of you who were there? Or, tell the youth who came your hopes for what they’ll get out of being part of InterHigh!

If you didn’t come to Night Market this past Monday, you sure missed out on an amazing event! There were so many people coming from every corner of the campus (evident by the dorm teams) at Barrows Courtyard trying out the free Asian foods in a pseudo-Night Market style.  One sophomore came 30 minutes early [...]

Welcome week is notoriously boring, and we love remedying this age old problem! Last night Koinonia got together for a rousing time of games. We played Human Bingo – a game of bold claims!

Weekend of Happiness

This past Sunday was also the senior’s epic Graduation Sunday! The seniors superbly sang a sweet and sure-to-honor-God song (I just used alliteration, for those engineers out there who might have been befuddled at the presence of so many “s”s). Photo courtesy of Mike Chen. For me, I was impacted by the growth of these seniors as they [...]

The challenge: The guys must charge up the steep, soft hill, capture the sleds and ride down to glory. But the girls, frosh guys, and frosh bro staff are fiercely resisting them with snow projectiles. The result is some glorious fun.
