This past summer was a packed one for many of us who went on mission trips. To hear about it all, we're having a Missions Night in lieu of our normal Bible study. Hear testimonies and watch videos/slideshows from fellow college students from acts2fellowship, Koinonia, and Kairos about their experiences this summer going to places like Honduras, Taiwan, China, Kyrgyzstan, and Cambodia!
Here's a preview of this Friday:

News (9/22-9/28)
Well, it's been a long time since my last post - about a month now! - but hopefully I'll be able to post more consistently again. Anyways, the semester is in full swing now, and so is Koinonia. Good luck everyone taking their first Math 1A midterm this week!
As always, on Tuesday we have our prayer meeting at First Presbyterian Church of Berkeley (on the corner of Dana and Channing), but unlike always this week's prayer meeting is starting at 7:30 - pushed back from our usual start time. This is actually a permanent change (at least for the near future), so please make a note of that.
This Friday, instead of our normal Bible study on-campus, we're going to have a missions night at First Presbyterian Church with the entire college department of Gracepoint Fellowship Church. This past summer, 185 people from Gracepoint went to 6 different countries - Cambodia, China, Taiwan, Kyrgyzstan, Honduras, and Thailand - and many of those who participated were college students. We're going to get a chance to see various video slideshows documenting the trip as well as hearing personally from many people who went on the trip, so it's sure to be an exciting time. The actual night kicks off at 7 PM, but we'll be meeting for dinner at 6 PM - more details on that to come soon, but if they don't come, feel free to contact one of the staff.
On Saturday, we're going to have a Freshman class outing across all of Koinonia. The agenda? A BBQ picnic and sports, and finishing off the afternoon by watching the Cal vs. Colorado State football game together! Pickups will be at Anna Head West parking lot (the parking lot next to Crossroads and the Channing-Bowditch apartments), time TBA. If you're interested, please sign up here!
Finally, for those looking for a church on Sunday, or who are interested in checking out a church (if you've never really gone before), Gracepoint Fellowship Church service this Sunday will begin at 1:30 PM at Willard Middle School on Telegraph. For those in Units 1, 2, and 3, there will be walk groups (which are just groups that you can walk to service together with) at 12:45, and for those living Clark Kerr, Foothill, Bowles, and Stern, rides will be at 1:00. You can go here for more details.
