Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Romans 12 – 2

Did you know…

Today is Jessie Fisher’s last day with Messiah. Jessie started with the procurement services team as a work study. She then moved to be the procurement services clerk and took over the purchasing card program. She has been an extremely valuable member of our team and we are sad to see her go, but we wish her nothing but the best. Be sure to reach out today to wish her success on her new path.

We are happy to announce the upcoming changes happening within Student Financial Services and the Falcon Exchange Offices on campus. Effective on July 1, MyKayla Gladfelter will transition into the Falcon Exchange coordinator position. Over the last year, MyKayla has been a great addition to the Falcon Exchange, as she is dedicated in helping others, and has successfully collaborated with various departments on campus to support students.

Also, we are excited to announce effective on July 1, Bryan Stout will be our new technical analyst and grad counselor in Student Financial Services. Over the last 8 years, Bryan has been serving in various roles between Student Financial Services and the Falcon Exchange at Messiah.
