All Are Invited To Celebrate an Advent Tradition

Team and club members, classmates and co-workers, family and friends are invited by Mission and Ministry to gather Sunday, Dec. 3  at 5 p.m. in the Byron Center for The University’s Advent Mass.

After mass, stroll down the commons to the Dionne Green for the tree lighting. Then, immediately following, head into the DeNaples Center for Christmas on the Commons hosted by the Center for Student Engagement. It is an evening filled with light, lively fun and love!

"We hope that, even among final exams, papers, grading, shopping, and get-together of all shapes and sizes, that these days provide each of us with the opportunity to prepare our hearts once again for the in-breaking of Christ in our world," said Dan Cosacchi, Ph.D., vice president for Mission and Ministry. 

"One of the ways that we here at The University of Scranton celebrate this liturgical season together is with our annual Advent Mass, followed by our Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony. This year, please join us on Sunday, Dec. 3, at 5 p.m. in the Byron Center. After Mass concludes, we will process with lit candles to the Dionne Green for the remainder of the festivities. All are welcome, and we look forward to seeing you there!"
