Baccalaureate 2016
Baccalaureate, held Friday, May 13, 2016, in Brubaker Auditorium, is the annual worship service for graduating seniors and their families, held on Commencement eve. Planned by members of the senior class, in collaboration with College Ministries staff, it has become a wonderful tradition to celebrate God's calling and faithfulness in the lives of the graduating class. The service ends with the tradition of a candlelight worship experience, reflecting back to the candlelight service that seniors first had at Messiah with their family members on move-in day. Baccalaureate is followed by a reception in Hitchcock Arena for all seniors and their families to enjoy a time of refreshments and visiting with friends, faculty and others who have made their Messiah experience a special one
