The William Penn Honors Program invites you to hear theologian and ethicist Matthew Kaemingk present a thought-provoking Christian perspective on the growing debates over Muslim presence in the West. Rejecting both fearful nationalism and romantic multiculturalism, Kaemingk makes the case for a third way — a Christian pluralism that is committed to both the historic Christian faith and the public rights, dignity and freedom of Islam.

The lecture is Thursday, April 5, at 7:30 p.m. in Canyon Commons 101-103 and is free and open to the public.

Please send any questions to Jocelyn Stein at jstein@georgefox.edu.

The Northwest Student Regional Convention is here on campus March 26-29. About 20 schools affiliated with the Accelerated Christian Education program have brought 200 high school students here to compete in academics, photography, athletics, and music to qualify for their national competition held in Indiana in May.

This group has been coming to George Fox since 1989. Joshua and Olivia Nava are the conference directors and their “office” is in Greenroom for the week.

Please contact the Conference and Event Office if you have questions (503-554-2027).

This is Holy Week – the week when the Christian church remembers the events leading up to the resurrection of Jesus. To invite you into reflection on Jesus’ journey to the cross and the good news of Easter Sunday, the spiritual life office has posted a week-long Bible reading plan on our webpage for your convenience.

Our hope is that as you follow Jesus’ journey to the cross and wait with expectancy for Easter Sunday, that you will encounter God’s love for you and presence with you.

A George Fox student developing a card game is seeking a student well-versed in graphic/digital illustration (Photoshop, Illustrator) to create card, character and box art for the card game.

Plans call for the product to go on Kickstarter next year. This would be a good opportunity for art majors to expand their portfolio. There will be monetary compensation for the work, given that it is a large project. It will be a bonus if you know about strategy card games.

Contact Brandon Seeger at bseeger15@georgefox.edu to find out more about this project.
