Did you miss the last “Companioning Our Shadow: Emotions & Relationships” course? If so, Michael Simmons is offering this course again via Zoom on Friday, Nov. 12, from 9 to 11 a.m.
Michael is a spiritual director, retreat facilitator, and serves on the leadership team with Companioning Center on the board of Deep Water, a local community that provides tools, processes, and sacred spaces for women and men to heal. He is a doctoral student at Portland Seminary and is an ordained elder in the Free Methodist Church.
Course info: Psychologist Carl Jung coined the term “shadow” to refer to the parts of ourselves we hide, repress, or deny. Robert Bly called the shadow “the long bag we drag behind us.” We place all that would cause us pain and conflict into the bag, but it still holds incredible power to transform our lives, relationships and communities.
This course will be a space to invite Christ to meet our hidden parts and deepen that process of healing. Join Michael as he explores and practices tools for companioning our shadow, particularly around our emotions and relationships.
The cost for attending the course is $39, and participants can register here.
If you have any questions, email Michael Simmons at msimmons@georgefox.edu

If professors are recording grades in Canvas, students can enter hypothetical grades for future assignments to see the effect on their final grade. Instructions for students are available at “Using What-if Grades.” The feature can be helpful as advisors work with students to evaluate course performance.
It’s possible there are assignments that are not in Canvas, so students should make sure they know whether all graded activity is listed in Canvas when they use this feature, then adjust their interpretation of the “What-if” final grade accordingly.
Employees who are working with students – especially those who have compliance concerns related to athletics, financial aid, or otherwise – should ensure that student reporting of grades is coming from official grades, not “What-if†grading.
