Kairos Christian Fellowship (Gracepoint – Berkeley)

Remember Steven Choi’s yodeling and the missing sheep? The Kung Fu fighting and Alex Lee as a Panda? Pastor Will as a break-dancing Moses? And we definitely can’t forget about Calvin and Danny dancing to “Under Pressure!”Well, Thanksgiving Celebration came back this year with a bang!

Pastor Ed first gave a message on the transforming power of gratitude, from the perspective of the receiver. Then, there was the powerful presentation of various people’s Thanksgiving Dare sharings of how they were thankful for their salvation, people in their lives, the church, material blessings, and nature.

And then the celebration began.

Kairos stepped up and started off the night’s program with our “year-in-review”-themed performance! Many brothers and sisters of Kairos came together to make our whole performance possible. Abe created an amazing word art animation to introduce G-Live while Nelson and some others acted in the hilarious Truth Project parody video. More than 80 dancers on stage danced their heart out. But they couldn’t have done it without all the behind-the-scene choreographers and costume/prop makers. For the finale, we all danced to a rocking song performed by our own Kairos live band! Also, I want to give a special shout-out to the return of the Goons (Rick, Steve, and Josh) and also Andy acting as the alien of Men in Black. The crowd definitely loved them!]

The other ministries of Gracepoint also gave performances with absolutely no shame. Remember Jonah and the giant brown and white fish? “Nice, nice baby?” “Praise God” in an Indian accent and Bollywood dancing? Ribbon dancing? And the unforgettable Praxis’ rah rah spirit!

After all the shocks and laughter, Kairos enjoyed our very own Thanksgiving banquet, replete with homemade turkey and ham and all the necessary Thanksgiving sides. We decorated notecards that described three things from the past year for which we were thankful as well. In addition to the delicious dinner and fellowship that we had, I personally was very grateful for my small group as we live life together in our apartments, God’s challenges and humbling, and the opportunity to serve in ImpACT and on mission trips!

Here’s highlights from the night! stay in tune for more fun pictures to come!
