Kairos Christian Fellowship (Gracepoint – Berkeley)

Face off

So last friday night, October 16th, 2009, Kairos and A2F came together for another memorable RSF Night. The arenas of competition included handball, musical basketball, and the never-before-seen capture the frisbee and tennis ball.

Juniors were clearly seen as the favorites to win yet another sports event, and they indeed prove to be in solid form. But the finale of the night, the ULTIMATE brave-heart, in which all classes clashed at once, that snatched victory from the juniors’ grasp. As the juniors were dominating the last event as well, all of a sudden in the middle of the game, 10 additional staff jumped into the battle to aid the freshmen, who actually outnumbered all other classes at the beginning. Experienced staff hunted down the easily visible yellow shirted juniors and took them out one by one.

But in the end, it was neither the juniors nor the freshmen who came out on top. Grey shirted sophomores strategically remained noiseless, avoiding any kind of confrontation throughout the game, and ended up with the most survivors. So the sophomores took the 1st place, followed by the juniors and the freshmen. But no matter who the victor was, I think all of us had a good time of bonding, not just with those we know, but also with new faces from different ministry. Class pride aside, I always feel blessed to have the opportunity to share such an experience as the RSF Night with so many brothers and sisters. But definitely, I doubt there will be another upset in the next sports night.

Freshmen - size of an army

(Temporarily) Victorious Sophomores

Mighty juniors

Senior power

It looks like a rainy week this week, folks… up until Thursday, anyways. Hope everyone stays dry and healthy! Word on the streets is that most people are now done with their first wave of midterms… that is, unless you’re in the college of chemistry where you just constantly get pummeled by midterms.

Here are the plans this week:

WED: HOTSPOT

Hot Spot is still on this week, but will be meeting by different groups. Please contact your staff for more info.

FRIDAY

FROSH LIFE GROUP + DINNER
6:30pm @ YWCA

Freshmen Life Group and dinner is back at the Y this week.

JRS+SRS SETUP
6:30pm @ 112 Wurster

The juniors and seniors have the privilege this Friday of doing setup. Please bring your own dinners and arrive at Wurster promptly by 6:30.

BIBLE STUDY
7:30pm @ 112 Wurster

We’ll be continuing with the series, The IncomPARABLE Wisdom. Please note that we’re back at Wurster this week.

RSF NIGHT
9:30pm

a2f and Kairos will be combining to have our first RSF Night of the year! If I recall correctly, the juniors won the Kairos Kleeberger Field night a few months back (though, I thought they only won it because of their sick intro; I tried to suppress it from my memory). Who will win this week? Can the freshmen take it all for the first time ever (this semester)? Can the sophomores? Oh, the suspense! Oh, the drama! Be there and be a part of it!

Group Devotion Time

DT by groups begins this week. Those of you who signed up should’ve gotten an email from Eunice. If you would still like to join, it’s not too late to sign up!

SWS Setup Team and Elderly Care Ministry

Two things here: First, we are looking for a few good men and women who will rise to the occasion of learning — and doing — the Sunday setup each week. We have an unofficial eighth core value in our church, and that is SIU — setting it up! Be a part of the team that goes every Sunday to Willard at the crack of dawn (ie, 8am) to help SIU the sound, stage, and lights. Sign up to serve in this way!

Second, we’ll need another group of people to help out with the Elderly Care Ministry, led by our Praxis people. This group will go once a month to Crown Bay. It’s a concrete opportunity to take care of “the hungry, the thirsty, the naked, and the sick” right in our own backyard. If you’d like to join ECM, please sign up.

If you can, please sign up by this Wednesday!
