The Grad/ISM groups of UCLA and USC left early Saturday morning and returned Sunday afternoon for a weekend Prayer Retreat. We also got to go inner-tubing at nearby Mountain High ski resort. More Pictures
Happy New Year everyone! It is exciting to begin a new year and also a new decade! In the spirit of journeying into something brand new, here is a group picture from our Star Trek skit that we performed recently for our church’s Thanksgiving Fest celebration. The UCLA and USC grad/ISM groups teamed up to perform this skit which explored the meaning of Romans 6:23 “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”
This Winter Quarter, we resume our weekly Friday night bible studies in Kerckhoff 131 at 8pm. We will also be having dinner together beforehand at 7pm in Ackerman near Panda Express. Please come join us!
Every Friday at 7pm, we’ll be getting together at Ackerman A level (same level as Panda Express) to have dinner together before Bible Study begins. Bible study starts at 8pm in Kerckhoff 131 so we’ll head over together after dinner. Last week, we had Papa John’s (we were careful not to eat it too close to Sbarro’s…)
We had a great time on our LA tour last Saturday (9/27). We went to the Farmer’s Market on Fairfax for lunch, and then visited the Hollywood Walk of Fame (Mann’s Chinese Theater, Kodak Theater, the stars on the ground). Le Bron James was promoting his new movie that day and we waited a bit for him to arrive, but alas – we went home disappointed (some of us got promotional T-shirts for the movie though!). More pictures.
Join us this Saturday (10/3) at 5pm at the BBQ grill in Weyburn near Jacaranda Court to hang out and enjoy the good food.

Are you a Christian graduate student looking for a place to fellowship and grow spiritually? Or a non-Christian interested in learning more about the Bible? Either way, we welcome you to join us this year as we seek God and study the Bible together on the UCLA campus!

We were out there today to meet the incoming grad students at the UCLA New Grad Student Orientation!
Some of the guys in the Grad group recently took a day trip to Laguna Beach.
