Christ’s love is for the whole person – mind, body, and spirit. From water wells, to schools, to substance abuse programs, to clinics, and churches the OCMC facilitates several projects throughout the year aimed at ministering to the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual needs of people where missionaries, mission teams, and mission priests serve.
As faithful stewards of your donation, we apply all funds received as designated. Please note that in the event the mission project you designate is overfunded or no longer applicable, your donation will be applied to the project (or region) most needed to continue the work of OCMC.
Albania
Your gift will help sponsor the cost of renovation work to a retreat center at the historic Voskopoja monastery (which will be used for future small group meetings) and to sponsor catechists who will come together for a ‘working’ retreat.
A fun-filled after school camp is being planned, using a brand-new Creation curriculum that the Orthodox Church of Albania has produced. Your gift makes it possible to purchase much needed equipment for the Home of Hope to offer this virtual event.
Ghana
A continuing education seminar will make a difference in the lives of 20 clergy from all over Ghana. Your gift will make it possible for these committed men to receive further training on the role of the priest, development of parish ministries and stewardship.
Your support of this ministry in Ghana makes it possible for 300 children to attend summer camp where they will grow in their relationship with Christ and with others. The National Youth Camp program helps keep the youth connected to other Orthodox youth around the country and encourages them in to continue to grow in their faith.
