"Being home is...hard"
True for you? i know it was for me. my greatest temptation in high school during the hot summer days in MD was to stay indoors, sleep until the sun burst through my shades and watch TV for hours until i was bored of TV. and then i would sleep some more. boy, thank the Lord that the times have changed and i have changed.
Here's a great article that gives some more perspective on this topic and some great advice about how to have an "Intentional Summer Break" from Boundless.org.

Thanksgiving Retreat - Sat Nov 15
I've been attending Gracepoint now for over 14 years. I know I look like I just stepped foot on this campus =). Well, over the years our ministry has changed, matured and grown in many ways. 14 years ago, we were mainly doing ministry on just the Berkeley campus and there was just one college group. But now, we have a2f, koinonia and kairos on the Berkeley campus and we have koinonia's all over the bay area - from CSUEB to SFSU. And this of course, doesn't include our sister ministries like Bridgeway and Waypoint.

So, it's that time of year again, when we go all out to make Thanksgiving really special. So we, as Koinonia and as a church, celebrate Thanksgiving in a grand style.

October's Post-Bible Study Activities
Just wanted to give you a heads up for this month's activities after Bible Study, so you can mark your calendars.
Sierra Barn...do we own a farm?
OK, so you may have heard about something about Sierra Lodge or Sierra Barn and maybe you're thinking barn...do we have a farm? Well, we don't although maybe one day we will be able to have some horses around! But we have some land up in the Sierras that we have been developing as a retreat site and a home for our getaways, camping trips, hiking trips, etc... But as hg RED has already blogged about this, i'll let them tell us all about it. Check out the link here:

Bowling This Past Friday
Hi,

God doesn't waste...
This past Sunday, we had a special Sunday at Gracepoint Fellowship Church as we had a Baptism Service and our Open House, which highlighted the different ministries at our church. I think the Baptism service was my favorite part and I think I always tear up as I hear the testimonies of the people and hearing how each person has come from such a different place and yet we find ourselves so similar. Despite our pasts and history, we have a common theme in our lives; we're disconnected from our Maker in Heaven - God. And our sin has separated us and has often led us down very dark roads - pursuing the wrong things in our life instead of God like partying, drugs, alcohol, romance, and other addictions. But again, I love that part when each person comes to his/her senses and realizes, just like the prodigal son, that they have been living apart from God and what they were pursuing didn't and couldn't satisfy but only God could. They find what's always been missing.
