Annual Event Encourages Campus and Community to ‘Pause’ and Encounter God

BOILING SPRINGS, N.C.鈥斖�曝吃瓜-Webb University invites students, faculty, staff, and the surrounding community to participate in Selah Week, happening Feb. 24-28, a time dedicated to spiritual renewal and reflection. Themed 鈥淓ncountering God,鈥� this event will feature engaging worship services, student and faculty testimonies, and messages designed to inspire personal faith journeys.

鈥淪elah,鈥� meaning to pause and rest, reflects the heart of this long-standing tradition, formerly known as Celebration Week. For more than four decades, 网曝吃瓜-Webb has set aside this special time to encourage audiences to step away from daily distractions and focus on their spiritual walk. Each day during this week, all are encouraged to take some time out of their day to be still, and 鈥渆ncounter God鈥� just where they are. 

鈥淭his is an opportunity for students and all who attend to take a pause, turn their eyes and hearts toward the Lord, and listen,鈥� said Neal Payne, associate minister to the University for student ministries. 鈥淥ur prayer is that students and attendees will see themselves in the biblical stories shared and recognize how God is speaking to them, inviting them into a deeper relationship with Him.鈥�
