The Students for Life Club is excited to host guest speaker Liberty Pike, who works for Oregon Right to Life, today (Wednesday). She will be addressing the issue of abortion and the depth and importance of the pro-life cause from 5 to 6:30 p.m. in Hoover 103.

Liberty will also be talking about how to love those who have been affected by abortion and what our actions should be to balance grace and truth together. All are welcome to the event, and we hope to bring a light to a topic that is so easily pushed into the darkness and never talked about.

Contact Hannah Thom (hthom16@georgefox.edu) with any questions.

George Fox is once again partnering with Hillsboro Airporter to provide shuttle service to Portland International Airport for Thanksgiving break. Students will be expected to work directly with Hillsboro Airporter to reserve their spot.

Here are the details:

• The cost for one passenger is $65, plus a tip. Each additional passenger is $3.
• Each shuttle can fit five to six passengers. The cost per student is based on the total number of passengers during the scheduled times, so if you can fill one shuttle, the cost per student could be as low as $15 (if you have a total of six passengers).
• Make your reservations more than 24 hours in advance and Hillsboro Airporter can group you together. To reserve your spot, go online to Hillsboro Airporter & Car Service LLC.
• Hillsboro Airporter accepts cash or credit card for payment. Parents can call Hillsboro Airporter with a credit card to pay for their student’s fare.
• Hillsboro Airporter has 24/7 service. It will work with students and their families, putting students together to lower the cost of the fare.

More information, as well as the application, can be found on the Study Abroad web page.

Residence Life is looking for students that exhibit Christian maturity, humility, and leadership skills for our 2018-19 leadership teams. Presently, 66 students serve as Resident Assistants and Assistant Area Coordinators. We are looking for men and women who (a) seek to be stretched and transformed in their leadership roles, (b) value the diversity of our faith community, and (c) desire to invest deeply into the communities flourishing and growth. We would value your suggestions and recommendations for students to be considered for these positions.

We will personally encourage the students you recommend to seek candidacy in our programs. Past and current student leaders have reported that recommendations from peers, staff and faculty are one of the most important reasons they consider these positions. Personal encouragement goes a long way for students, especially for those who struggle to see themselves as qualified for leadership positions.

If you would like to recommend a student, fill out this response form by Monday, Nov. 19. We have moved to an electronic format for recommendations to reduce paper waste and costs.

If you have any questions, contact Dexter Ballard (ballardd@georgefox.edu).

Join us today (Nov. 7) at 4:05 p.m. in Hoover 105 to watch the movie “Cyber-Seniors” and enjoy a discussion.

From its website, “Cyber-Seniors” is “a humorous and heartwarming feature documentary. CYBER-SENIORS adds to the important international conversation about the growing generation gap. Focusing on a group of senior citizens who take their first steps into cyber-space under the tutelage of teenage mentors, the film expertly renders a thought-provoking look at a spirited group of men and women who are enriched by digitally re-connecting with their families and each other. Finding their footing rather quickly, the group moves on to compete for the most YouTube views while swiftly building their online inventory of friends.”

We believe this will be a fun and meaningful learning experience for people of all ages and backgrounds!

The Office of Spiritual Life (SpiL) offers students annual opportunities to participate in SpiL trips. These domestic and international trips last anywhere from one to four weeks and challenge students to learn from and work alongside great people and model organizations in the context of their culture, community and complexities.

These trips are designed to share the “Be Known” promise beyond our campus as students meet, befriend and serve “Christ in the least of these,” particularly among people experiencing the various and complex realities of under-resourced communities. Our traveling teams do so by immersing in the cultural contexts and perspectives that exist outside of students’ familiar home culture and utilizing service as a means of nurturing Christian community development.

Our teams go with the mindset of being both learners and servants. Our primary goal through these short-term trips is to recognize, learn from, accentuate, encourage and build upon the assets and gifts of our global neighbors, partner organizations, and the neighbors and communities they live amongst and serve long term. We aspire to listen and learn, encourage and serve alongside to help enhance sustainable ministry and Christian community development, with the goal of coming home with a greater understanding of the kingdom and mission of God and our role in it wherever we live.

For more information and to apply, go to georgefox.edu/spiltrips. Applications are due Monday, Nov. 13.
