Come hear about Team Drives, a new feature of Google Drive and a great tool for accessing and storing files that are shared among a group, such as a department or committee. They are quick and easy to create.

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.
So, in the words of Jesus, “Come and see!” (John 1:39)
