FAQs

As the official Pan-Orthodox missions agency of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of the United States of America, we are dedicated to galvanizing Orthodox Christians in the U.S. to embrace the Great Commission. We unleash human and financial resources to establish Christ’s Church in collaboration with local Churches, through a uniquely Orthodox approach to missionary work. Ultimately, we aspire to bring people into the fullness of life in Christ.

We focus on serving areas where the Gospel has not been heard, the Church has not been fully established, and/or the population is largely non-Christian. We are currently active in 33 countries and 36 dioceses around the world.

Whether you’re serving abroad, serving from home, or contributing financially, there are numerous ways to support our work. Visit the Ways to Give and Ways to Serve pages to explore your options and get involved.
