“Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad!”
Christ is born, glorify Him. Christ from heaven, go out to meet Him. Christ on earth, be exalted. Sing to the Lord all the whole earth; and that I may join both in one word, let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad, for Him who is of heaven and then of earth. Christ in the flesh, rejoice with trembling and with joy; with trembling because of your sins, with joy because of your hope.
GREGORY OF NAZIANZUS
Today, as we celebrate the arrival of “Him who is of heaven and then of earth” into the humble manger in Bethlehem, we thank you for the trust you place in this institution, dedicated to Our Lady, Seat of Wisdom. We pray that you will see in this college the fruits of this great season of gift-giving—the gifts of the Magi to the Child Christ, the gifts we exchange on Christmas morning, and the source of all these, the gift of the Incarnate Word. We ask God to bless this great endeavor, and we ask Him to bless you and your family during this joyful Christmas season.

David’s town bedded down, and the world was so cold;
Song was stilled, hearts were chilled, and the world was grown old;
Then was born Christ the Morn, Shepherd of the one fold:
David’s town bore the crown, as the prophets foretold.Adam’s race, shorn of grace, begs of Mary reprieve:
“Be we blessed through your Yes that we too may believe,
By what’s heard God’s own Word in our hearts to conceive.
Guiding star fore the dawn, be our true Christmas Eve.”Mary’s boy, be my joy when the martyrs shall sing,
When the Judge shall appear and the trumpet shall ring.
In the day of dismay to the Infant I cling:
Who the Baby has borne needs not fly from the King.
