1. **Amphilochios: Saint of Patmos** A film by Thomaida Hudanish, Timothy Patitsas

Delve into the life and spiritual legacy of St. Amphilochios, a beloved twentieth-century saint from the Greek island of Patmos. Through this documentary, filmed during the inaugural celebration of his April feast day in 2019, witness the profound impact of this tireless spiritual father, missionary, and founder of orphanages and monasteries. Locals and pilgrims share heartfelt remembrances of this revered figure.

Run time: 30 min

2. **Sacred Alaska** A film by Simon Scionka, Silas Karbo

Embark on a historical exploration of the first Russian monks who journeyed from the island monasteries in Valaam, Russia, across Siberia and the perilous Bering Sea to the Alaskan islands and mainland. Featuring Father Herman and Bishop Innocent, this documentary illustrates their mission to "sanctify the land" by spreading the Gospel and their profound love for the Native Alaskans.

Run time: 88 min.


All proceeds from this event will support Project Mexico and St. Innocent Orphanage, a Christian Orthodox organization dedicated to building homes and providing hope for boys without families and families without homes in Mexico. Your participation will directly contribute to this noble cause.
