Advent is always a special time for the followers of Christ. Special, but sometimes frustrating as the problems of the world can weary us, even as we wait sure in the knowledge of our savior’s birth.

Black Nativity—a musical celebration of the Christmas story written by a light of the Harlem Renaissance and directed by a leader of the Fresno theater community—will be the fall 2023 mainstage production at Fresno Pacific University. 

A Festival of Lessons and Carols, Fresno Pacific University’s annual Christmas gift to the community, will present “Light and Life to All He Brings” for 2023.
