Fellowship of St. John Divine

The Fellowship of St. John the Divine develops, funds and runs a variety of programs for the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America. The Fellowship (formerly known as Senior SOYO) is the oldest of all the Archdiocese Organizations and is responsible for the early development of Choirs, Church School Programs and Youth Ministry Programs. The Fellowship currently develops and oversees a wide variety of programs on the parish, regional and archdiocesan levels.
St. Ignatius is an active part of the Fellowship.  Many of the Regional Officers are parishioners of St. Ignatius and are actively engaged in the good works the organization supports.  Most recently the development of Camp St. Thekla for the youth in our region has been developed.  Click on the link above to find out more information about The Fellowship of St. John the Divine.

The Purpose of The Order of St. Ignatius of Antioch:

  • To promote and propagate the teachings of our Lord, Jesus Christ, and the welfare of the Orthodox faith.

  • To strengthen the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese as a spiritual, administrative and functional entity.

  • To financially support the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese through a lifetime commitment.

  • To enhance the spiritual commitment of its members.

Every new member receives a Cross of The Order which symbolizes his or her commitment to service and the sacrifice for life.

The new membership goal for The Order, set by Metropolitan PHILIP, is 3,000 members by our thirtieth anniversary year of 2006. We have already accomplished our previous goal of 2000 members by 2000!
     Many parishioners are members and would invite you to join us.  Please make your inquiries to either Dr. Mark McCollum or Mr. Bill Baumgartner for more information how you can "feed God's sheep."  You may also email the webmaster.
