MCOC 2022 Conference - Detroit, MI
For the first annual MCOC Conference, we had over 125 Orthodox Christian Young Adults and clergy join us in Detroit. People travelled from across the state, nation, and even Canada to gather together as Orthodox Christians united to serve under one Church. Our Keynote Speaker, Steve Christoforou, explored the theme of Servant Leadership.
