The New Believers
A
surprising number of Asian Students are drawn to the supportive structure
of evangelical congregations.
Christian rock music blasts through the open doors of the Student Union
as hundreds of Asian-American undergrads clamber up the stairs to a packed
Pauley Ballroom. It’s the annual New Student Welcome Night hosted
by three campus ministries run by Gracepoint Fellowship Church, a fast-growing
Berkeley congregation that has redefined what it means to be a Christian
at Cal in the early years of the new millennium.

Saying
“Hello” in Cairo

All
I was trying to do was greet Mamdouh, the front esk clerk at my
small hotel in the Garden City district of Cairo.
“Issallam ‘alaykum,’” I proudly proclaimed.
Momdouh return my morning greeting with a thin smile.
“We don't say that her,” he explained. ”this is a Chritian
hotel. We say
‘sabah il-khayr‘ or ‘good morning.’”
