On the next Sabbath almost the whole city gathered to hear the word of the Lord.
    -Acts 13:44

The Chaplain’s Committee would like to invite you to a time of worship through music, scripture reading, and reflection. Sabbath is a time and place you can come to simply rest, be blessed, and encouraged at the close of one week, then challenged and strengthened for the beginning of the next.

Join us on Sunday evenings at 8pm in the Cap & Gown room.

Please note that the “Bruin News” in the restrooms have the wrong time on them. Just remember, whenever you see those green fliers… Sabbath is at 8pm!

Contact Benjamin Gowan at bgowan04@georgefox.edu for more information.
