Something BIG is Happening!

The expansion of our Campus Missionary Initiative is well underway, which hires, trains, and assigns full-time staff to college campuses. These campus-based professionals will oversee regular scripture studies, student mentorship, fellowship & service programs, and campus outreach━all designed to keep students more richly connected to Christ.

We have 3 locations and we intend to scale the program to dozens of campuses over the next several years. Find one near you or help us expand.

“College for me has been a time for spiritual growth, and thanks to my friends in my local OCF chapter, I am constantly surrounded by others who strive to grown in the faith together.”

Caroline

“Being a part of my local OCF chapter has truly transformed my college experience. The support and fellowship I’ve found here have helped me deepen my spiritual journey, giving me a sense of belonging and purpose as we grow in faith together.”

John
“OCF has given me so much in my life. It’s given me a purpose, it’s given me a way to stay connected to people who can really understand who I am.”
Theodora, Minnesota State University

“If you’re worried, or maybe anxious about joining an OCF chapter, take the time and trust that Christ has such wonderful plans for you. I had the opportunity of coming into the Church alongside OCF, and it’s been such a huge blessing. If you have any doubts, put them at ease and find your OCF Chapter and your family.”

Emma, Baylor University

“It’s really cool to see all these Orthodox college students come together. Our Student Leadership Board really want our OCFs to grow and develop throughout the year. It’s a really special group of people that want to grow closer to the Faith and bring others in college to the Faith as well.”

Perry, Perdue University
