At St. Innocent Orthodox Church, one of our core missions is to "press toward the goal of becoming more like our Lord and Savior, desiring to love and care for one another and for those in the wider community." In line with this mission, we established the St. Olga Society to serve our community.

This ministry operates through three main branches: Arrows and Incense Prayer Team, Cards and Calls, and Loaves and Fishes.

The Arrows and Incense Prayer Team consists of individuals who pray for community members who have requested additional prayers. Prayer requests can be submitted in several ways, including: through the Prayer Requests chat in Realm, by writing names on a card and placing them in the prayer box located in the parish hall, or by informing our parish priest, Fr. Theophan.

Loaves and Fishes provides meals to families in need. This group prepares meals monthly to be readily available for families during times of need. The group leader reaches out to confirm whether meals are needed and to inquire about any dietary restrictions within the household. Meal trains can also be organized and communicated to the group leader.

Cards and Calls extend the support of both service areas. When we learn of a prayer request or a family receiving a meal, a parishioner will reach out to check in, see if additional assistance is needed, or simply to let them know we are thinking of them.

By the end of spring, a form will be available on this page where you can submit requests to a) serve in one of these areas, and b) request meals, prayers, or notify us of someone who needs a call.
