Welcome to the Messiah College Centennial website!

On behalf of the Messiah community, I invite you to join us as we celebrate Messiah College's 100th anniversary during the 2009-2010 academic year.

The theme of Messiah College's Centennial is "Shared Faith. Bold Vision. Enduring Promise." The members of the Centennial Committee are excited about the opportunities presented by the three-part framework of the theme, which celebrates Messiah's rich heritage and present distinctives and also speaks to our promising future.

The theme also provides a thoughtful framework for Centennial events and programming. During our Centennial year, Messiah will sponsor numerous lectures, exhibits, symposiums, worship experiences, concerts, visual and performing art expressions—and other educational and social events—designed to commemorate the College's 100 years of preparing students for lives of service, leadership, and reconciliation.

This website will be updated regularly to reflect new information related to Messiah's Centennial celebration. Please visit it frequently as we approach our Centennial year, which will officially begin in August 2009. We invite you to celebrate God's steadfast and continued faithfulness to Messiah College as we anticipate our second century of educating students toward maturity of intellect, character, and Christian faith!

Warm regards,

Kim S. Phipps
President, Messiah College
