The 40-day period leading up to Easter, called Lent, begins today (Wednesday).

The campus pastors will be offering an Ash Wednesday service to lead the community into the season of Lent on Wednesday at 7 p.m. in Bauman Auditorium during our usual Vespers chapel service. We will also offer a more informal Ash Wednesday service from 4 to 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday in the Prayer Chapel. All are welcome.

Gather around the fireplace with coffee and light refreshments to hear artist Jennifer Lichtenberg discuss her process and answer questions about her “I am afraid​” ​art ​exhibit on display for Black History Month beginning Feb. 9.

About the exhibit
During the 2016-17 academic year, the Graduate School of Counseling staff and faculty committed​ ​themselves​ ​to a book group, reading through and processing the work of Ta-Nehisi Coates’ Between the World and Me. In the book, Coates addresses what it means to inhabit an African American body in today’s America. Jennifer created “I am afraid” in response to Coates’ work.

Check out additional resources on Black History Month and Dr. Clayborne Carson’s lecture on the “Fox @ the Fireside” LibGuide.

Questions? Email library@georgefox.edu.
