IOCC Kids' Page: IRAQ
In post-war Iraq, every day is a struggle. With violence surrounding them daily, women and children, especially orphans, are often at risk and have little or no opportunity for a better life. IOCC is assisting them by distributing emergency food, hygiene items, clothes, shoes, blankets and other necessities to vulnerable orphans and families in the country.

 | Acts in the Spirit of Christ's Love
Just as the Church prepares us for Pascha with a period of fasting and special readings, so too, after Pascha the Church introduces into the liturgical cycle the Acts of the Apostles. How appropriate that it is named Acts because it is about the work and life changing actions of the Apostles and their followers in response to Christ's Resurrection.
