Every Sunday of the Advent season a new Advent devotional video will be released by the Office for Spiritual Life. There will be five total videos, with devotionals offered by the George Fox pastoral team and President Robin Baker.
This week’s devotional is on “Hope” and is given by University Pastor Jamie Noling-Auth. Watch it here.
The Office for Spiritual Life invites the George Fox community to observe the Advent season with our 2020 Advent Reader.
This year’s reader includes Bible passages along with music selections created by students in the George Fox music program. We pray you have a blessed Advent season as your prepare your hearts for the celebration of Jesus’ birth.Â
