in the past few months we've added some pretty rad interns into the ccc world of fun!!! we'll be profiling them here on the blog and first up are the fantabulous stefanie holmes and katie hairfield! stefanie is bringing her creative flare to the marketing + events team and katie is bringing the happy with the kidz church team...we're so excited to have them as part of the team!!!

would you rather spend the rest of your life in an insanely cold climate or insanely hot climate?

STEFANIE: depends on where the location of this insaneness (is that a word?) takes place, europe, beaches, I may stroll there to frolic on the sand, but to be honest at the end of the day I'd probably go with insanely cold if it involves snowboarding!

KATIE: i see that neither isn't an option. i guess either one would be fine, since i equally dislike them.


tell us something that most people wouldn't know about you...

STEFANIE: i IMPULSIVELY bought a moped 2yrs ago hoping it would inspire me to save for a harley davidson. sadly it didn't, rode it twice then it broke down. It's been sitting in my garage unfixed and I still don't have a harley davidson.

KATIE: i have 3 tattoos and 1 of them is the Jesus fish, with my baptism date inside, in the colors of CCC san diego's current logo. i also have a massive love for broccoli.


what is your favorite Christmas tradition?

STEFANIE: being I live in a different state then my family I get to pick and choose how i want to spend Christmas. It's been tough, but it's grown to be my favorite, and that is going to mammoth for the past 5 years on Christmas to shred snow on my snowboard!

KATIE: when i lived in texas, we had this massive house that I would decorate with lights inside and out. my grandpa gave me a budget and I would design the layout for it every year.


if chipotle had to battle taco bell and del taco in the octagon at the same time, who would emerge victorious?

STEFANIE: chipotle would utterly dominate. period.

KATIE: i'd root for chipotle but taco bell would probably take down both. they just got that processed edge.


what do you do for a living? if you could/had to do something else, what would you do?

STEFANIE: i'm a waitress at a restaurant on the beach. there's never a dull moment in my "if I could/would/do" vocabulary. i've given up on wanting to be super women & a pro snowboarder. so at this point of my life I would love to be molded by God, taught by the amazing leaders at C3 san diego, and then be released into the communities locally and internationally to bring hope, love, and teachings of Jesus to people.

KATIE: i work for starbucks and a children's dance studio. it's not meant to be a career just a stepping stone.


what are your favorite top three movies of all time?

STEFANIE: To be honest I can't remember what I did yesterday let alone remember what my favorite movies are...hmmmm...

1. Avatar
2. Good Fellas
3. Role Models

KATIE: i don't really like to watch movies. i do, however, prefer to watch Hitch or Beauty and the Beast, if given the choice.


what is your favorite thing about interning at CCC?

STEFANIE:
1. hands down, homework
2. building relationships with and learning from the remarkable staff and pastors of C3 san diego
3. getting to learn the operations of what goes into building a church, and being part of pastor jurgen and pastor leanne's vision!

KATIE: the challenges. i'm always up for a good challenge.


snowboarding or skiing? surfing or bodyboarding? skateboarding or rollerblading?

STEFANIE: ha, skiing?, when pigs fly, SNOWBOARDING.. Surfing if it involves a kite, let the kite do most of the work, skateboarding if I don't break my arm again.

KATIE: snowboarding. surfing. skateboarding.
