Fox

On October 13 and 14, the Fox News Network in Washington, D.C. came to Patrick Henry College's campus to broadcast a town hall on education and parental rights to be viewed by 1.4M Americans.

A Fox crew, of approximately 12 in number, pulled off the broadcast with 10 panelists from Loudoun and surrounding counties. PHC's Hope Rawlson, Faith Jones, and Grace Torgerson got an up-close experience behind-the-scenes and some one-on-three time with the co-host of the show in exchange for their servanthood that morning.

PHC Junior Anna Fox, a Literature major and Pride and Prejudice co-director, wrote the script for the play. She found that most scripts available were "weirdly modernized," crude, or omitted iconic lines from the book.

"We want it to be an uproarious time," Fox said. Read the rest of the story here

Durning

Remembering the Life (and Light) of Carrie Durning, Class of 2020

It's with a heavy heart that we remember and honor the life of Carrie Durning. Carrie graduated from Patrick Henry College with a degree in Journalism in 2020. Today, at the age of 24, she is in the presence of the Lord.

Carrie was very gifted in photography and digital media. She loved the Lord, committed herself to bringing him glory, and had a missional heart to reach the lost with the hope that is only found in Jesus Christ. Anyone who knew Carrie knows that she was always smiling, laughing, and looking for ways to bring joy to others. Carrie, thank you for enriching our lives.
