We are pleased to share Messiah University’s Advent 2024 booklet, celebrating the Advent of our Lord and our ability to give voice to our faith, through song.
Each week of this devotional contains one verse from “O Come, O Come, Emmanuel” along with two accompanying passages of scripture that provide a theological context for the lyrics. The final reading for Christmas day highlights the carol’s first verse and chorus, which remind us of the central message of Christmas: Emmanuel, or “God with us,” has come, and we long for Him to come again.
We ask you to consider investing in Messiah students with a charitable gift to support our mission of educating men and women toward maturity of intellect, character and Christian faith in preparation for lives of service, leadership and reconciliation in church and society.
Merry Christmas,
