The Emmanuel Village, Emmanuel’s student housing complex,
presently consists of 22 two-bedroom apartments and four
three-bedroom apartments. These spacious apartments (1,100 sq
ft) rent for $420 per month for families, or $187.50 each for
two single students sharing a cottage. The cottages feature
central heat and central air conditioning, as well as washer and
dryer hookups. These townhouse apartments are built in quadraplexes. The 26

Good news and better news:
First, the good news: Emmanuel participates in the Federal
Stafford Student Loan and PLUS/Supplemental Loan programs.
Now, the better news: Most of our students
are able to complete their studies without incurring debt. A
little sacrifice, a lot of self-control, and a scholarship from
Emmanuel should enable you to be FREE to serve the Lord wherever
and whenever He calls you to serve.
Emmanuel School of
Religion is affiliated with the Christian Churches/Churches of
Christ. These churches are
generally known for a strong commitment to Biblical preaching
and teaching, passionate concern for people who do not know the
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and heart felt compassion for
people whose needs are severe. While approximately 85 percent of our students come to us
from this fellowship of churches, students from other church
groups find a warm welcome awaiting them at Emmanuel.
