Koinonia Christian Campus Fellowship – UC Berkeley Club

These days, there’s plenty going on. 6-weeks into the semester and it feels like a lifetime already! Here’s the quick news around the block:

Friday, Oct 2

For dinner, all the girls are meeting at First Pres Courtyard at 6:15p, bring your own food. The Soph/Jr guys are meeting at Sun Hong Kong at 6:00p. The Frosh/Senior guys are meeting at Crossroads at 6:15p.

In the last of our Koinonia bible study series, Why Am I So Lonely?, Pastor Ed’s going to take on… you guessed it: Loneliness. That’s at 7:30p at First Pres, on the corner of Channing & Dana.

Afterwards, our whole homegroup’s going to San Francisco! We’ll hit up a big sculpture, run around on the field, and then get some shakes, burgers, and good eats. Make sure to bring a jacket and some tennis shoes!

Saturday, Oct 3

USC vs. Cal, 5:00p. There’s no way we’re not watching this one. We’re not going to mope around just because we didn’t get tickets. We’ve reserved the Willard Auditorium for both Koinonia and acts2fellowship, where we’re going to watch the game on a 20 foot screen in Hi-Def. But before that, starting at 3:30p, we’re playing 3-on-3 basketball for whoever’s interested in the Willard Gym. Very cool. Bring your game. Or at least bring your voice to yell at people and cheer others on. We’ll have food and drinks (good ol’ Costco pizza), so bring along $3 to help chip in.

Sunday, Oct 4

40 people are getting baptized this Sunday, including our own Steph C and Irene K. Let’s show our support and give glory to God together as we hear their stories and remember our own spiritual journeys! It’ll be a part of our Gracepoint Berkeley Sunday Service, 1:00p @ Willard Middle School.

In other news…

• Our homegroup’s heading to Glen Brooks Terrace this Sunday, Oct 4, to bring a worship service and spend time with the elderly residents there. We’ll be there from 10:00a – 11:30a. We last went in June and had a wonderful time together and vowed to return! If you want to join us, let Kathy know.
• Bowling last week for the freshmen was pretty ridiculous… ridiculously fun! There’s pictures online, but of more interest is our own Eddie C. putting his foot in his mouth.
• Interhigh’s RISE was last Saturday. It was a rocking event as many of our college students participated. There’s plenty of pictures online, and because Isaiah K. already did all the work in writing up what happened, I’ll just point you to Isaiah’s recap. Oh yea, here’s a cool video:
  
• The frosh discipleship guys had dinner at Steve & Suzanne’s. Cool. Good food. Prayed on the shoreline. Laughed at each other. Good times.

That’s it for now. That was plenty. See you guys soon.
