In celebration of Native American Heritage Month (November), the Intercultural Resource Center has compiled a digital document for engagement this month.

We invite you to join us in learning from and witnessing the Gospel message through followers of Jesus in First Nations communities, citing passages from the First Nations version of the New Testament and the works of George Fox faculty alumni.

Additionally, every good Heritage Month involves getting together, so we will be hosting events here at the IRC (the Moore House), including a First Nations connection event on Thursday, Nov. 9, from 4 to 5 p.m., as well as a film screening of Indian Horse on Wednesday, Nov. 29, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m.

We hope that these opportunities serve as a starting point for your celebration this month. As always, we want to hear and represent you, so if you have recommendations for celebrating this month and future cultural heritage months, please let us know by filling out this form.

Happy Native American Heritage Month, George Fox!

Synopsis: When estranged son James returns for his father’s funeral, the Callifer family finds their staunch unbelief turned upside down as secrets from the past disrupt the present. Unearthing lost childhood, James is confronted by the best and worst of his family history, leading him inexorably toward the startling truth. What happened in the potting shed all those years ago? And why has it led the Callifers to reject their youngest son? Is there room for belief in a family of skeptics?

Legendary novelist Graham Greene addresses these questions and more in a taut, engrossing drama, described by the New York Daily News as “an intellectual detective story.”

Students and staff can claim their free ticket by visiting our website at georgefox.edu/box-office. Student tickets are free for Wednesday or Thursday nights; staff tickets are free for any night.
