Mission Team Chicago supports the Orthodox Christian Mission Center (OCMC) by educating the Chicago Orthodox Christian communities about the needs of other developing Orthodox communities, both at home and abroad. Mission Team Chicago also serves these communities, promotes the programs of the OCMC, and engages in fundraising.
Mission Team Chicago hosts a benefit dinner annually, commonly during the Triodion or Great Lent, where a figure in the Orthodox mission community shares their experiences and perspectives around concerning the mission movement. At other times throughout the year, Mission Team Chicago hosts gatherings that highlight both short-term and long-term mission work throughout the world.
