Work You Made Possible

As 2022 draws to a close, we want to take a moment to thank you for everything you’ve helped accomplish through IOCC. These are just some of the ways you’ve helped people in need around the world and served others in the spirit of Christ’s love:

• In Kosovo, IOCC helped establish a diocesan resource center for small farmers, including providing a commercial printing machine so the center can print and distribute info and educational literature to farmers improving their production.
• IOCC continues supporting a soup kitchen in Belgrade, Serbia, as the Church develops intensive vegetable production to serve over 2,000 daily meals for people in need.
• On IOCC’s US home build teams, 44 volunteers responded following tornadoes in western Kentucky and Hurricane Ida in Louisiana, repairing 7 homes, during 2,715 volunteer hours.
