Here is the skit that we showed at our Graduate Student Welcome Night 2010. The skit was well written and the actors and actresses did a fine job. Let us know what you thought.

Graduate Student Welcome Night #1
This past Friday we had our first Graduate Student Welcome Night, and oh what a night it was! There were over 140 people in attendance and we had students from many countries including far east Japan, gregarious Germany, “Be the Reds” South Korea, the Pacific Ocean Philippines, valiant Vietnam, terrific Taiwan, and of course, the ever-so-populated country of China. It was nice to see so many grad students (and undergrads too!), many of whom had been in the U.S. for less than 1 month. Continue reading

Girls Santa Cruz Beach and Boardwalk
Over the Fourth of July weekend, several of us headed down for some fun in the sun on the Santa Cruz beach and boardwalk! After a beautiful hike along the ocean coast, we devoured our lunch of Vietnamese sandwiches and fresh fruit on the soft sandy beach.
Upon entering the boardwalk, we split into two groups: an amateur roller coaster + pigging out group, and an EXTREME! rider group. Overall, both groups had a ton of fun experiencing the various attractions (including haunted houses, water splash rides, swings, and of course, the big dipper!) as well as getting a taste of all the famous fair foods (such as funnel cakes, ice cream dots, garlic fries, and shaved ice!)
Later, while some of us ventured out to test the ocean waters, others ended the day resting and playing soccer on the beach. And best of all, unlike the guys who spent the entire day fishing for their own dinner at sea, we got to enjoy some quality soft tofu soup on the way home–what a treat!
Guy’s Fishing Trip to Santa Cruz
The guys went to Santa Cruz on the Fourth of July Weekend. We had a great time though some of us got sea sick. Just so the girls know, we did catch some fish and we had a great bonfire, where we ate the fish. Check out some of the pictures from the outing.

Congratulations Daniel and Hui!
April 25, 2010- Our own Daniel and Hui got baptized with 20 others at Gracepoint Berkeley after becoming Christian in 2008 at the IGSM Winter Retreat. We rejoiced together as we recounted how God personally answered and addressed their questions and doubts, how God led Hui’s parents to salvation, and how God has continued to mold and shape them as they help other people to know Him. It was amazing to see their long journey and how God used the Bible, other people, and different examples from their lives to show them about His character especially through Daniel’s job search and PhD admission. I was personally awed to recount their journey from when they first joined the IGSM English Class many years ago. If you missed Hui’s testimony, you can read it here at Gracepoint Stories. You can also take a look at the pictures.
