Lecture tonight discusses ‘Christian Hospitality and Immigration’

Wednesday, April 4th, 2018

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.

The lecture is tonight (Thursday) 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.
