make yourself at home!
A picture is worth a thousand words. How about 20 pictures, then? You do the math. Below is just a quick snapshot of the awesome half day hiking trip that Berkeley Kairos 4 took at Muir Woods. The weather was nice and cool, which actually worked to our advantage.
Enough talk… enjoy the pictures.
See you at our next nature excursion!
This past Friday’s post bible study fun was to take the Fenton’s Challenge. Eat the ginormous 3 scoop-banana split ice cream in 20 minutes (even all the melted stuff has to be eaten), and you get a t-shirt! The waitress awaits our orders. Are we in or are we out?
Many have tried, and few have succeeded. The challengers? Brittany, Jully, Rich Yen, and Riley. The spectators? Tim, Zach, Monica, and Rich Dongses. Waaay too much ice cream for me, for sure!
So this is what it looked like (middle, right). Monica and I were quite happy with our smaller single scoops (left).
Funny how the friendly challenges turned into a girl vs. guy thing, too.
So was anyone actually able to finish in 20 minutes? Drum roll please…
Brittany did it! Congrats!
And Jully was a close 2nd. If only she had a few more minutes, she would have had it, too! Sorry Riley… I don’t think that counts…
So in the end… the girls took the gold. Alright… wait until next time, us guys are going to go into training!
We will be having a special event on Friday called “Mission Night”, where we will learn, watch videos, and hear stories how God has worked in our lives from all the different summer mission trips that members and college students from Gracepoint Fellowship Church went on. Many of your fellow Kairos 4 staffers went on these trips over the summer like Taiwan, Cambodia, and Kyrgyzstan.
We will start off with our usual dinner at the YWCA this Friday @ 6pm.
Afterwards, we’ll walk together to First Presbyterian Church where we will join up with 2 other campus fellowships, Koinonia, and A2F for Mission Night. Hope to see you there! It’s going to be an eye-opening night for sure!
Man I’m really looking forward to our half-day trip to the Muir Woods this Saturday! Aren’t y’all itching to get out of your rooms, out of the library, away from the computer screen to get some fresh air? (raises hand)
Where else would be a better place to get fresh air than in the rustic Muir Woods, one of the Bay Area’s most beautiful destinations! I’m super excited about this trip. It’ll be a refreshing light hike through the woods, a nice lunch (on us!), and an opportunity to meet people and just hang out!
Well, I hope that many people come! See you all bright and early at Unit 1 (Durant side), 9:30am! I’ll bring a frisbee and a football… maybe we can all play at lunchtime!
Thanks for those that came out to the ultimate frisbee and pizza last week. We had just enough people to play a game… and boy was it a game! I don’t think I’ve ever ran so much playing Ultimate in my life.
By the end of the night, I think everyone improved a lot (myself included!). I think it helped to have a player who plays on the actual Ultimate Frisbee Club team to show us a thing or two about how to actually play.
Oh, and the pizzas help shave off the appetite we worked up before, during, and after we played. Mmmm… For those that couldn’t make it, you don’t wanna miss next time’s game!
Bring your game & your appetite. Friends are welcomed!
