PHOENIX, AZ --- Representatives from the American Carpatho-Russian
Orthodox Diocese of the USA, The Antiochian Orthodox Christian
Archdiocese of North America, The Serbian Orthodox Diocese of the
USA, The Greek Orthodox Archdiocese of America and the Orthodox Church
in America took part in a campus ministry conference hosted by the
Orthodox Christian Fellowship (OCF) at the Courtyard Marriott in Tempe,
Arizona from February 4-6, 2010.
The purpose of the conference was to implement a regional chaplaincy
network that would support the building up of existing Orthodox
Christian Fellowship chapters and the establishment of new chapters
throughout the various regions of North America. The conference was led
by OCF Executive Director, Fr. Kevin Scherer and Fr. James Coles, the
North American Regional Chaplain. In attendance also were members of
the OCF Student Advisory Board from throughout North America.
The conference, although short in duration, marked an important step
forward in strengthening and growing Orthodox Christian campus ministry
in North America. Plans were set in motion for implementing improved
communication and enhanced resources to local OCF chapters and parish
youth ministry programs designed to prepare High School Students for
the transition to College.
