Many laborers in the vineyard of the Orthodox Mission have recently visited our Fraternity: bishops from Africa, Tanzania, and Mexico, who reported on the progress of their work and received the scheduled financial support.

2025 proved to be a milestone year for the Orthodox Missionary Fraternity: the canonization of our founder, Fr. Chrysostomos Papasarantopoulos, coincided with intensive activity across three continents, remittances of 514,000 euros to 31 mission outposts, and 39 infrastructure projects for the world’s most vulnerable communities.

At two in the morning, two-year-old Barbara was found abandoned in the trash bins. She found refuge in the orphanage of our Holy Diocese and now needs our care!
