Beach Bonfire Bonanza!
Jun 29, 2011

Hey everyone! How’s your summer so far? For the sophomores who are in the Bay Area, we took a class trip this past weekend to the beautiful Pacifica Beach!

We were greeted with some high waves that crossed our paths and created a temporary panic. (Made us restrategize how we were going to reach our special spot.) While tossing the frisbee around, we lost 2 in the water but our 2 fearless sophomore bros fished them out. And, we had an amazing time playing the mother of all ultimate football. (Ultimate football = Ultimate frisbee – frisbee + football. You do the math. =) )

This epic showdown must have lasted for hours without any breaks. All we can say is that the sophomore class has some athletic sisters. (Other classes, you better watch out at the next sports night ’cause sophomores are taking over!) While people were running, the grill was firing.

Thanks to some students and staff, a yummy meal of grilled hot links, juicy pineapple sausages, piping hot clam chowder, toasted rolls, and caramelized onions were in the works that totally hit the spot. Afterwards we wrapped up the night with a cozy time around the bonfire together right on the beach, singing a couple good ol’ tunes and watching the sunset. A great, memory-making time for sure. We were also reminded of Psalm 1 and encouraged to be rooted in God’s word like a tree planted by streams of water. Sophomore year = prime time to build and deepen relationships with God and with each other! We also took a moment to pray for all our brothers and sisters not here for the summer, but are probably in nice, warmer climates. We miss you guys!

Don’t worry, there’ll definitely be more beach bonfire bonanza’s in the future. In the meantime, drop a line and tell us what you guys have been up to in the warm sun
We miss you! (And check out the photos section for more pics on this trip.)
















Man! That looked like it was so much fun!!
And those onions look amazing! haha
Sophomore year.. it really is a year of growth!
