The "End-of-Life Conference" was held at St. Mary of Egypt Orthodox Church in America on August 19, 2006 in Atlanta, GA. It was a highly successful one day event designed to help prepare attendees to address the practical burdens of the issues surrounding death. Orthodox Christian professionals shared their expertise in Law, Medicine, Psychology, and Theology, all from an Orthodox Christian perspective.

ICON is a practical outreach of our Orthodox Christian faith, bringing together professionals, volunteers, clergy, and donors to bring God's message of healing and love by providing God-centered resources to help overcome life's challenges.

We work in constant remembrance that through Divine Grace, those we serve and those who provide the service are made in God's image and through His mercy and grace have the ability to live out His love and grace in their own lives.

Our first priority is to those challenges that are unique to Orthodox Christians. Our second priority is to reach beyond ourselves to serve the needs of any who would come to us for healing.

The ICON "Crisis Action Steps for Youth Workers" guide is designed to provide general guidelines to Orthodox Christian youth workers to make more informed choices when responding to crisis situations. Read more about it, and download the guide in .pdf format.
