Next week, we serve our community.
Embrace the Community is Thursday, September 17, and our Beacons will be serving throughout the Eugene and Springfield area. Together, let’s serve our neighbors as Christ has called us to do.
Shhh, don`t tell Iggy. 🤫🔥 We checked in with our Beacons and got some REAL opinions on what they think about our bright mascot.
Pics from our first few weeks back on campus! 💙💛
Students, be encouraged by these words from Professor Joshua Little during Chapel earlier this week. We are grateful for our Savior, Jesus Christ.

That cozy campus feeling is back with the first rainy day of the semester! 🌧️
Introducing this year’s Chapel series: God With Us!
Professor and Pastor Joshua Little shared our first message of the series, exploring creation and the image of God as we begin our focus on “Encountering the presence of God through the story of Scripture.”
We’re excited for the speakers who will join us throughout the year as we continue exploring what it means to experience God With Us!
Just a quick recap of Orientation 2026 in case you want to relive it with us!
