2009 Thanksgiving Retreat in Berkeley, CA

sarahsong — Thu, 03 Dec 2009 05:00:38 +0000

A few weeks ago some of us including 12 UT-Austin students packed our bags and flew all the way to the Bay Area in California to join our Gracepoint Berkeley, Davis and Hsinchu churches and participate in the 2009 Thanksgiving Retreat. It was exciting to see all of our friends and mentors whom we missed so much, but it was even more exciting to have some of our students go with us and see first-hand the kind of community that sent some of us out one and a half years ago to start this church plant in Texas.

Who says girls can’t play ball?

I don’t normally like to incite competition among the guys and girls…however in this case I think it’s fair to just report the facts. In a spontaneous game of shooting baskets, our very own Jackie scored 75 while Frederick scored 54. In other words, Jackie defeated Frederick. It wasn’t just a defeat, it was a pure example of DOMINATION. I’m sure some will try to justify this event as a “fluke” or “beginner’s luck ” but I think that only points to the the fact that some people can’t accept reality.

: Here’s a picture of the scoreboard: Jackie shot 75; Fred shot 54

: Here’s Jackie calmly taking in the victory while Fred seems dumbfounded.

Discipleship Retreat

sarahsong — Tue, 08 Sep 2009 06:53:05 +0000

Some of our sophomores and grad student attended our first discipleship retreat on Saturday. It was a time to realign their hearts to God’s word and deepen their commitment and understanding of the Holy God. They had a chance to reflect on the holiness of God through the R.C. Sproul sermon, read articles by renown Christian authors, and learned to view relevant issues for college students in a Biblical way.

I was thankful that each person wanted to spend their time learning God’s truth and values and were willing to take concrete steps of faith to trust God with their lives. I hope they’ll remember and go back to what they learned during this retreat again and again and hold onto to the truth of God’s word as they face different situations this upcoming semester.
