An Important Notice
Regarding Bringing America to Orthodoxy!
Dear Friend,
The 2004 North American Orthodox Conference on
Missions and Evangelism will be held September 3-6
(Labor Day Weekend) in Norman, Oklahoma, just
outside Oklahoma City. The Conference is a
cross-jurisdictional event sponsored by the
Orthodox Christian Mission Center, and hosted by
the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese
Department of Missions and Evangelism.
Participants will learn how to share their
Christian Faith from an Orthodox perspective and
help their parishes grow. The Conference has
proven enormously beneficial to hundreds of
Orthodox clergy and laity for well over a decade,
and even has become a popular and pivotal event
for inquirers exploring the Orthodox Church.
This year’s Conference features Fr. Peter
Gillquist, Prof. Matthew Gallatin (author of
“Thirsting For God”), and Mrs. Catherine Lingas
(president of the Greek Orthodox Metropolis of San
Francisco Commission on Orthodox Missions and
Evangelism). This excellent line-up of speakers
addressing several new and very important topics,
combined with the top-notch facilities offered by
the University of Oklahoma at a very affordable
rate, adds up to a terrifically inspirational and
instructional experience for Orthodox Christians
who wish to share their “pearl of great price”.
This is the first time the Conference has been
offered in the middle part of America. Don’t let
this fantastic opportunity for spiritual education
and renewal pass you by, especially if you live in
the Midwest, South, or Southwest.
Please consider attending the 2004 Orthodox
Conference on Missions and Evangelism. For
complete information and registration
instructions, visit
www.antiochian.org/missions/conference, or
call the conference coordinator at (805) 685-8999.
Please note that this year, for the first time,
you may register on-line if you wish, and you have
the option of paying by credit card.
Finally, please share this information with a
friend(s), and remember those who labor on this
Conference and its participants in your prayers.
Thank you, and may the Lord God bless you!
Yours in Christ,
Howard Lange
