Great news – the Support a Mission Priest social media campaign was a huge success, bringing in over $2,500! Originally, the goal was to raise $1,800 – enough to support three new mission priests. Due to your generous gifts, we have exceeded that goal! Thank you for being a part of meeting the financial needs of Orthodox priests around the world. Your gifts will have a lasting impact!
But the need doesn’t stop after the campaign has ended! SAMP priests work year-round, and the Orthodox Church is growing quickly. As parishes grow, so does the need for more priests and hands to serve the faithful. Please consider becoming a long-term supporter of the SAMP program. Monthly financial gifts allow SAMP priests to continue their great and much-needed ministry.
Please pray for the continued success of the Support a Mission Priest program and for those it assists. These are the people carrying out the Orthodox Faith in places where it is a struggle to do so. May God be with the SAMP priests who faithfully serve.
If you would like more information on how to become a long-term donor to the SAMP program, you may call 904-829-5132 ext. 163, or e-mail us at samp@ocmc.org.
