SUPRAŚL, POLAND — Registration has opened for SUPRASL 2026, an international gathering of Orthodox young adults, as the Orthodox Church in America announces scholarship support for participants across its dioceses.

With the blessing of His Beatitude Metr. Tikhon, the OCA’s Department of Youth, Young Adult and Campus Ministry is offering a $700 scholarship for one participant, ages 18–30, in each diocese. In the Diocese of the South, His Eminence Abp. Alexander has invited young adults to submit a written request of no more than one page by March 1. The diocese intends to match the OCA’s scholarship, though recipients will be responsible for remaining travel expenses.

SUPRASL 2026 will be held July 28–August 6 at the Monastery of the Annunciation and the Supraśl Academy, commemorating the 130th anniversary of St. Sophrony of Essex.

Application for this scholarship can be found here. More information about the SUPRASL gathering can be found here.
