Global Ecclesial Charities is an international ecumenical Christian charitable umbrella organization. It is the official operational office of the Patriarchate of St. Stephen for charitable, humanitarian, and relief efforts in furtherance of the Patriarchate's mandate of mission, service, and charity. As part of that role, it also coordinates such efforts of the various offices and organizations of the Church and other religious and secular associations, institutions, and agencies. Rather than re-invent the wheel, GEC operates on the principle that it is better to identify and support the best organization or individual for each task in order to maximize effectiveness and timeliness for the benefit of those in need.
Global Ecclesial Charities works directly and collaborates with others who serve those in need. |
