About the Organization
St. Panteleimon Orthodox Christian Outreach is a tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) organization. It is a Pan-Orthodox ministry that is under the spiritual protection of St. Nicholas Ukrainian Orthodox Church in Lakewood, OH (Ukrainian Orthodox Church of the USA -- Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople). Our organization is made up of caring individuals from various Orthodox parishes who are committed to loving our neighbors as ourselves. Our primary purpose is to provide group prayer services to Orthodox Christians who are unable to attend services and programs at a local parish. We serve residents of nursing homes, assisted living facilities and other group homes. Additionally, we visit and minister to people who are not Orthodox yet desire to worship the Holy Trinity. It is our prayer that this ministry will be an asset to the Orthodox clergy and laity of our community.
