The Daily Bruin

Open auditions for a short student film will be held today (Saturday) at 8 p.m. in Lemmons Kitchen Lab (location is subject to change).

Interested in acting in a short silent film? Well here’s your chance! We’re looking for two actors (one male, one female) who want the opportunity to star in a short film. There are no lines to memorize, but we are looking for people who think they’d be good at miming. More information about the characters and story will be given at auditions.

No monologue required. We’ll be asking you to act out nonverbal improv scenes. We will be filming at various times from Feb. 22-26 and are willing to work with your schedule.

Have any questions? Text Ashlyn Eperjesi at 469-258-9236.

Are you interested in engaging in dialogue about current issues in our society?

We are hosting an event, Matheteis, designed to provide space for faculty, staff/administrators and students to discuss difficult topics that lead to learning and understanding. Those who attend will have the opportunity to listen and learn from our four panelists as they answer a series of questions. Afterwards, attendees will have the chance to ask questions themselves and join the discussion.

Our first gathering for this semester’s series will be Tuesday, Feb. 21, at 8:30 p.m. in Canyon Commons, and the topic will be “Would You Stand.” We will be discussing the national anthem and activism. There is no cost to attend, and snacks will be provided. Elective chapel credit is offered for this event. This event is sponsored by the Intercultural Life office, Shalom and BSU.

Feel free to contact Mikaela Smith at smithm16@georgefox.edu if you have any questions.

Lifted Hands is an effort to get students at George Fox assembled together in prayer. Every Friday from 2 to 2:30 p.m. in the Prayer Chapel, all students are invited to come participate in prayer over our campus, our nation, our world, and each other.

Join us this afternoon!

Create a space in your home or office to be a “war room” for prayer. Pray throughout this challenge as much as possible in that space. Pray for your coworkers, your friends, your family, the lost, the stolen, the broken, the sick, the church, the next generation, this generation and the government.

This challenge is priceless, but you can add 125 points per week for praying in that space. For the 125 Days of Wellness scoreboard, go to this link.

You’re invited to join the 125 MPH Wellness Group every Monday from noon to 12:30 p.m. to walk the Stoffer Stadium track (or walk through the neighborhood if the mood strikes us).
