Quaker Focus Week at George Fox University

This past week at George Fox University we have been engaging our Quaker heritage in a focused way. While our roots are Quaker, and there is still a strong Quaker community on campus, many of our students have no idea what a Quaker is or believes. Among the events we held were three chapel services, with the link to those found below. We hope you will engage these and continue to conversation!

 

Wess Daniels, pastor of Camas Friends Church, spoke on Quaker community as a Remix. Click here to watch it.

 

 

Becky Ankeny, incoming Superintendent of the Northwest Yearly Meeting, spoke on the biblical proof for women in public ministry. Click here to watch it.

 

 

Jamie Johnson, Director of the Friends Leadership Program, spoke on celebrity culture in the church, specifically from Acts 14:8-23. To listen to it, click here.
