Ft. Lauderdale, FL On a recent trip to Atlanta,
Rev. Dr. Christopher Metropulos, Founder and
Executive Director of Orthodox Christian Network (OCN),
received the news that the Carlos Foundation was
making a major grant to the national media
outreach of the Standing Conference of Orthodox
Bishops in the Americas (SCOBA).
Fr. Christopher was attending a fund raising
dinner in Atlanta for the media ministry when Mrs.
Eula Carlos, head of the Carlos Foundation,
announced that her foundation was making a
$100,000 grant to Orthodox Christian Network.
This grant, the first from the Carlos Foundation
to OCN, was given in part to assist in the airing
of the program in Atlanta as well as further the
cause and growth of OCN. Rev. Metropulos was
thrilled that the Carlos Foundation joined the
growing list of major donors to OCN. He stated
This gift from the Andrew & Eula Carlos
Foundation continues to keep the respected memory
of Andrew Carlos at the front of the hearts and
minds of Orthodox Christians in the Atlanta area.
His life-long commitment to supporting the
Orthodox Christian community is well served by
this financial gift to OCN. As we continue to use
the powerful media tools of today to share the
riches of Orthodoxy with America, this initial
gift from the Carlos Foundation will be remembered
as one of the most important moments in the life
of our young ministry.
