This Sunday, October 6, parishes across North America remember Orthodox college students on College Student Sunday. Orthodox Christian Fellowship [OCF], the official campus ministry of the Assembly of Canonical Orthodox Bishops in the United States of America, has designated the month of October as Orthodox Awareness Month, and Sunday October 6 as College Student Sunday.

“Our students are having to wrestle, and live within a world of ever-changing realities, one where truth is relative, and love is just a slogan,” said His Beatitude Metropolitan Tikhon. “Our students need our support and love, and OCF is one of the best ways to channel that support to them. That is why I am encouraging every member of the Orthodox Church in America to support this ministry to our college students through prayer, monetary support, and/or donations of time and talent.” Learn about the many ways you can support OCF by visiting their website!
