现代科学和信仰真的水火不相容吗？这星期五我们可以一起来讨论。
For directions, please see below:
We had a great time with Studying the Bible. After that, it’s time to try out some new events. Eric, what should we do? “Hmm, not sure…”
Jin, “let me tell you what we have in store for tonight!”…
What is this, ping pong? You can’t fool me, this is not the way to play ping pong. The Din style ping pong sure looks fun. Everyone enjoyed it!
Where were you? Come join the fun!
There were more?…
That’s all the new games right? Wait, what are those balloons for? Trying to stump and breaking it with your foot? Eric, watch out for your own balloon（螳螂捕蝉，黄雀在后)! Next playing marbles with spoons? That is interesting. Even rolling quarters on the floor in a game of puck on table. There were sure a good variety of games.
Let’s all take a break, and enjoy some of these delicious desserts for the night!
While some of our friends join the battle on the waters to the east of Davis, we went for some adventure on the west of Davis. We went to the Corn Maze in Dixon. This corn maze set the world record in the 2014 Guinness Book World Record. It sure is large. Don’t get lost, just look at the map. Look at that big map in the picture. Before we start, let’s map the course and don’t get lost. Who’s good with directions here?
While we wait to get the tickets, let’s explore the front entrance area, and picture time.
Let the adventure begin… enter the maze.
Let’s take a break to enjoy the beauty of the sunset. We are not lost right? Because from the top of the platform, we saw different dead end from the carved out paths. We sure don’t want to end up in there.
Anyone brought a flashlight? Whew, glad that we didn’t get lost. We got out before the sun went down.
All these walking sure make us hungry. The food sure look yummy.
After the battle of West meets East cuisine. Where else can you find a new battleground? Waters…
We had a visit to the Sacramento Aquatic Center, with kayaking. We brought some water(ized), not canonized, weapons along for the fun. What’s a battle without some weapons. Before getting wet, and still on friendly terms, let’s take some nice pictures together…
Once pleasantries are done, and got into the battlefield, all bets are off. Look at the intensity, some getting serious. Even the ladies are taking no prisoners.
Times of truce. Everyone is leaping with joy! Except now the photographer is the only one dry. But spare the camera.
What’s truce without food. Looks at all these good sushi and Asian food, and it’s all you can eat…
On one end of the street there was potsticker making, while on the other end is Make Your Own Pizza. But we did more than just making our own pizza creations, we also had food for the brain and soul, and more food (desserts). A well balanced night…
We started off with making the pizza
Then we baked them, and got ready to eat. Was it food taste testing time? Or was someone sneaking into the kitchen, and getting caught red handed?
After all the good food, we had a time to feed the soul with Bible Study.
Then we have some game time.
Even a birthday surprise… and we finished out the night with ice cream dessert.
We were making potstickers(饺子), and just hanging out for some fun. Those homemade potstickers sure look delicious. Let’s start making/wrapping…
Some people surely were creative, and making dumpling into… IUSM. Food was so good, even Batman came for dinner. Were there enough dumplings for everyone?
It sure was, look at all these satisfying faces. All the more, ending the night with fun games. What a way to end Friday after all the classes and studying.
Let’s celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival. Edwin brought some moon cakes for everyone to enjoy together. Mid-Autumn Festival with a full moon, how wonderful. What are they doing kneeling on the floor? Must be some competition for the first to eat those delicious moon cakes, with lotus paste and egg yokes. Yum yum!
We had quite a few events the past couple weeks. There was the visit to the BUZZ on campus. Soon you run out of new things to see there.
Some of us are ready to have some good fun, and with good food to go along. What is some good fun without some competition? We went back to Brian & Helen’s home. First thing first, food… Making yummy crepes…
Gotta work out those extra calories. Competition with King Kong Shower, no, it’s not King Kong taking a shower in Brian and Helen’s living room. What’s your special move? Look for the video to see how much fun it was…
Last Thursday was the IUSM Welcome Night, and we welcome many new students onto the Davis campus. We got to meet many new friends. The night was full of activities, meeting new friends, engaging talks, good food, and fun games. Wish you were here to join us for a full night!
The welcome team to greet new friends
Can’t wait for the doors to open. Even while we waited, just having time to get to get to know each other. SCC sure is happening!
Life is like a race, and you run, run, run! Where are you running to? Is that Kung Fu? No, it’s just competition in the race of a lifetime, with obstacles however you have to get through. Life sure is not easy.
Next we had special music, video clips of life shared by some of the IUSM students, and an engaging talk from our guest speaker, Pastor William, from Luke 12, on the Rich Fool. What is the one thing this rich fool forgot to account for in his plan in life? and can lead him to a place he never thought of, and never wanted to be in? Thought provoking.
After all the deep thoughts about life, maybe for the first time, we sure got hungry all of a sudden. Look at these delicious food, even with vegetables(salad) for a complete meal. Seconds anyone?
A photo booth with pictures? Sure help to have some meaningful conversations about what goals in life you are looking for…
Time to end the night with some fun games. Everyone is having fun, and enjoying themselves! Hope you can join us on our next events!
What is there to do before the school starts in Davis. Well not much, with many of the stores closed early in the city. We had the Chill and Grill.
This is not the traditional BBQ burgers and hotdogs, with grilled onions, tomatoes, ketchup, mustard, etc. Add some potato salad and chips on the side. We had a fun evening of BBQ Burgers and Hotdogs, Asian style! What is that on the burger? KimChi? Not just Kimchi, Sriracha, and others…
