At George Fox University, our Be Known Promise flows from our belief that you are known and loved by God. Our hope is that while you are here, you will experience the love of God, and engage in the vibrance of our beautifully diverse community of Christ-followers.

Staff and faculty hold religion classes and community Bible studies outside to account for social distancing reqirements.
A Christ-Centered Community
Christ is at the center of everything we do, both inside and outside the classroom. This influences the way we teach every subject and is the reason we offer many opportunities for service and spiritual growth. At the center of our community is the belief that we are all gifted and called to serve those in need.
Students gather outside, masked, for classes, Bible studies, and chapel.
Located near campus, the North Valley Friends Church Peace Path offers students a place for prayer, scripture reading and contemplation.
At George Fox, transformation is part of your education. Together, in community, you will encounter so many opportunities to serve, grow in your faith and discover your calling, whether it's community worship in chapel, Shalom on Tuesdays, small group Bible studies or service opportunities like James Project. You will connect with professors and peers who care deeply about your spiritual journey and developement as a whole person. And as your relationship with God grows, so too will your desire to engage the world and share his love.
Oh, and don't forget, Jesus loves you.

The year 2020 will forever be remembered for the novel coronavirus that ravaged the world. The details are still a bit unknown, but it is believed that Washington state had the U.S.’s first case on Jan. 20. About five weeks later, Oregon reported its first case, and soon after Gov. Kate Brown announced that schools would close starting Monday, March 16. That was followed by a stay-at-home order on March 23. Students at George Fox went on spring break March 20-27 and were asked not to return to campus for the remainder of the semester.
