Saturday Service

Saturday Service is our regular off-campus opportunity to put our love of neighbor into practical action and, as a result, relationally link our students to our campus neighbors during their time at Fox and beyond!

Paid SpiL Internships

Each spiritual life internship is designed to help students engage in the dynamic intersection of spiritual formation, applied classroom concepts, preparation for long-term work using their strengths and skills, professional development, and collaborative interdisciplinary teamwork in a cross-cultural and ministry-minded workplace.
