Last Friday: Cordonices Park

Instead of bowling after Bible Study/GTS, all of Kairos headed up north in Berkeley to Cordonices Park. We slid down the steep stone slide (on a piece of cardboard), played frisbee (glow in the dark), explored a dark tunnel, and had awesome snacks. Here’s a video recap of the slide, with our leader Tim performing a perfect dismount, Kairos lead, Sue Yi, having second thoughts going down the slide, and… the “marshmallow middle”!

G-Live 2009 was a Success!

Thanks for all those that came out to support Gracepoint Fellowship Church’s theatrical production… GLive ‘09: Undo. It was amazing that 1900+ people (not including our members) came to watch the production over the span of 3 showtimes. I hope that many people could relate to the characters and situations portrayed in the skits, cause them to think about their own lives, and ultimately have an enjoyable and memorable experience. I think I can speak for all the people that worked behind the scenes that we all had an awesome time putting it together, all for the sake of sharing the Gospel in an exciting and relevant way!

Please share your comments about the show by posting a reply! I will leave you with the intro video to G-Live, which was shown at the beginning of the event to kick-start the time. People are still taking about it! Gonna have to watch it several times to catch everything.

Action-Packed Saturday!

UPDATE: For the brothers, we’ve unfortunately canceled the Saturday outing. However, we’ll still be getting together.

We’re going to Val’s (a great mom & pop burger place!) in Castro Valley, then heading back to Alameda for some time of sports/studying. You decide. So come and hang out with us!

Sat. 11am @  Annahead Parking Lot (Channing-Bowditch)

Brothers Ropes Course & Mountain Climbing

Sat. 11am @  Annahead Parking Lot (Channing-Bowditch) · $20 (rental, gas, food)

We’ve talked about it… and now the time is finally here! This Saturday (3/14) all the Kairos guys will be getting together to go to Santa Cruz (Mt. Hermon) for a time of adventure and fun. We’re going to be going on a ropes course and do some indoor rock climbing. There will also be time of football and frisbee, too. If that’s not enough, we’re going to end the day at the beach with a bonfire and awesome food. So you missed out last beach trip? No fret, this will be the ultimate relaxation day, after your midterms!

My thesis project and school work has been pretty intense thus far, so you’ll definitely see me there to unwind and de-stress!

Winter Retreat Recap & DT Group Signups

This past weekend Kairos 4 had the awesome opportunity to attend Gracepoint’s church-wide winter retreat at Mt. Hermon, Santa Cruz. It was good to start off the year studying the word of God in depth through messages by Pastor Ed, listening to encouraging stories of how people overcame different personal fears in their lives with the help of God, and taking part in awesome worship time with special guest praise leader, Joe Horness. Even more awesome was that by the end of the retreat, 7 college students from Kairos made decisions to receive Christ into their lives! Cool!

// DT Group Signups //

So exciting news. We’re going to start up Devitional Time (DT) groups this semester. We will have the opportunity to do our devotions in small groups during different times and days during the week, depending on your own schedule. We are opening the DT groups up to all of Kairos. It will be a great way to grow with other college students, and hear insights from Scripture that you might not have thought of upon your own personal reading. God’s word is deep in meaning and this will be a wonderful way to help you study His word better, and on a more regular basis.

Interested? Sign up asap by CLICKING HERE.

Congratulations on Graduating, Zack!

Kairos 4 would like to congratulate Zack on graduating this past fall semester. We wish you the best and pray that God will use you mightily in your future to come! We will miss you!

Kairos 3 & 4 Xmas Gift Exchange!

Here they are, the highly anticipated pics from last month’s Kairos 3 & 4 Christmas Gift Exchange. When we combine, you know you’re in for a night of crazy fun. I’ll let the photos speak for themselves. Where else will you find yummy food, and people showcasing their large hands, break-dancing skills, double-jointed-ness, salesman pitches, Jenga skills, and arm wrestling fierceness all for the sake of securing the best $5 gift? No doubt it’s here!

Hanging in there?

Quick update:

We’ll be having dinner tonight at Lotus House on Durant (near the Durant Food Court) at 6:30pm. After that we’ll all head over to First Presbyterian Church at 7:30pm for Bible Study with the rest of Kairos, A2F, and Koinonia fellowships. We have a special outdoor element surprise post-bible study so you won’t want to miss it!

So dress warm, and be sure to bring a LED light or a small flashlight if you have one. :D

Finals are upon us. Hope you guys are all hanging in there!

See you tonight!

Don’t Miss This Friday!

Hey guys.

Sad to say, but the semester is rearing to a close… finals season is upon us [insert horrific scream here]. Therefore, we will be having our last official Kairos 4 small group bible study this Friday (the following 2 Fridays we will be coming together with the rest of Kairos, A2F, and Koinonia for large group bible studies). So you don’t want to miss it!

Need more incentive? How about an Xmas Party after bible study with Kairos 3? We will be playing a variation of White Elephant Gift Exchange together as a group. It’s gonna be fun, and a great way to officially kickstart this Christmas season. Please bring a $5 (max) gift to partake in the fun festivities. And please please try bring something that people would actually want… so put off wrapping up your grandma’s fruitcake or Aunt Sally’s odd-sized socks for another time.

See you on Friday!
