Well, it's been a quiet week in my hometown ... (6/30-7/6)

Just wanted to remind everyone of what's going on this week:

On Tuesday, we're going to continue with SET (Summer Evangelism Training) where we're currently going through The Reason For God, a book by Tim Keller of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in Manhattan, and watching some video clips from Just Walk Across the Room, a resource created by Bill Hybels from Willow Creek Community Church. After SET, we'll have our regular college/ISM prayer meeting. SET starts at 7:00 PM, but we'll have healthy snacks (well, maybe the fruit snacks are not so healthy) starting at 6:30 PM.

On Friday, we would usually have our Summer Intramurals, but since this Friday is the Fourth of July, we're going to instead take advantage of our day off and go somewhere! UPDATE: We're going to go with Homegroup 7 and Homegroup 8 to Point Reyes for a day of sports, fireworks, and hopefully a bonfire to end the night!

Sunday service is at the usual time and place: 1:00 PM at Willard Middle School. If you need more information, you can find it on the Gracepoint Fellowship Church website.

Finally, just wanted to let everyone know that Michael, Joanna, and Azusa are still in Cambodia right now for the second week of their mission trip. Please continue to pray for their work there, and also for their health since a number of people have fallen sick in Cambodia this year. Azusa will be back this Saturday, and Michael and Joanna will return next Tuesday after their visit to our friends in Hsinchu, Taiwan.

Anyways, that's the news from Berkeley, where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average. *

* Disclaimer: This post has been influenced by The News from Lake Woebegon, a segment of A Prairie Home Companion, a program by American Public Media. Actually, the last statement was pretty much taken exactly from the program, except I replaced Lake Woebegon with Berkeley. Just in case you thought I had gone blind.
