Friendship House info meetings planned April 3-4
Friendship House is a residential opportunity for women, 21 years of age or older, at George Fox University, in partnership with Mark 2 Ministries and Friendship House Partners.
Students live in intentional Christian community with persons with an intellectual or developmental disability. Life is ordered around the community building blocks Jean Vanier articulated (founder of L’Arche communities), “Eat Together, Pray Together, Celebrate Together!”
Friendship House celebrates together! Celebration happens because Friendship House is a place of deep belonging in which each person, regardless of ability, is seen and recognized as a gift.
