College Student Sunday scheduled for October 3, 2021

BROOKLINE, MA – The Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops of the United States of America has designated October 3, 2021 as College Student Sunday. On this day, Orthodox parishes recognize and honor their Orthodox College Students and take a special collection to support the ministry to students of Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF).

Dn. Marek Simon, Executive Director, shared the following: “At a recent gathering with the 16 members of the OCF Student Leadership Board, excitement and encouragement filled me as I witnessed their love and enthusiasm for OCF. I am inspired by the work of these young adults to bring their peers together for fellowship, service, worship, and education. On College Student Sunday and throughout the year, your partnership facilitates our ministry to these students. We call on both parishes and individuals to offer opportunities and hospitality to students, and through financial support of our ministry.”

OCF, the official campus ministry agency of the Assembly of Bishops, continues to support a network of over 300 on-campus chapters, while also providing dynamic programming through local and regional retreats, virtual opportunities for students, College Conference, Real Break, and the Summer Leadership Institute.
