The Order of St. Ignatius is a movement of individuals who, motivated by faith and love, openly pledge a specific financial commitment to support the Antiochian Archdiocese. This financial commitment goes above and beyond the normal level of parish membership, and is not meant to replace, but to supercede parish level giving. The funds from the Order are channeled directly into archdiocesan educational, charitable, and outreach programs. Since its start in 1976, the Order of St. Ignatius has distributed over $16 million and now distributes $1.4 million annually—twenty-six percent of the archdiocesan annual budget. Our members have had the joy of witnessing many lives touched through programs such as Project Mexico and the Antiochian Village Camp, to name just two among the dozens of ministries the Order supports each year.
Membership in the order is open to all people over the age of eighteen who identify themselves with the Orthodox Church and its faith. Our members are men and women, young people and old, working in every type of profession. There are different levels of membership which vary according to the financial commitment. Visitors to this web page will find information on how to become a member, the different levels of membership available, and frank discussion of what the Order of St. Ignatius is all about.
