IOCC Offering Virtual Workshop for Parish Representatives
Source: iocc.org
Parish representatives of International Orthodox Christian Charities (IOCC) from across the country are invited to come together for a special evening of connection, collaboration, and inspiration. The gathering will feature insights from seasoned reps, opportunities to share experiences, and practical tools to energize and enhance each participant’s role.
The event underscores IOCC’s united mission of service and the collective impact of its volunteers.
“We all serve the same mission - and together, our voices amplify IOCC’s impact," the workshop page on IOCC's website states.
To help guide the conversation, participants are encouraged to reflect on the following ahead of the meeting:
- What’s one idea you’ve had for an IOCC-related event or activity—even if you haven’t tried it yet?
- What support, resources, or tools would help you feel more confident or inspired in your role?
- What would make it easier to recruit others in your parish to get involved with IOCC?
