We excited to be diving back into Daniel tonight (Wednesday) in Vespers. We will be talking about the first chapter of Daniel; get ready to be enlightened.
We hope to see you at 7 p.m. in Bauman Auditorium for a wonderful time of worship and teaching. Come rest in God’s presence.
We are looking for individuals who are willing to share their experience with battling depression, anxiety, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, or have lost a loved one to suicide. We, as George Fox film students, are producing a music video for an upcoming project to help communicate a cause that we care deeply about.
The goal of the film is to show others that we are not alone in our struggles, so we are looking for as many stories as possible that we can share. Filming will take place the weekends of Feb. 16-18 and Feb. 23-25, with exact times TBD.
For more information, please contact Gina Dodds at gdodds15@georgefox.edu.

Were you homeschooled in high school? Do you know a student who was? If this post sounds familiar, it is! We are your friendly neighborhood homeschoolers who have completed our focus groups and now need your help with our survey.
My partner and I are submitting a research paper to present at the Northwest Communication Association Conference in April. If you or anyone you know was homeschooled (at least a year) during high school, please help us out.
If you pass this along to other former homeschoolers attending college, you will broaden the scope of our survey results, making them more accurate and applicable to our purpose. Please let us utilize your network. We know there are a lot of fantastic homeschoolers out there who will help us succeed!
This survey should take around 20 minutes, and all responses will be anonymous. The survey will be available for roughly one week, so please participate and share as soon as possible.
Thank you for making our project a success, and may your semester be productive and enjoyable!
