99th FOCA National Convention Information
/99th FOCA National Convention
Cleveland, Ohio | July 24–27, 2026
One Faith • One Fellowship
Sponsored by the Cleveland “R” Club – Chapters 4 & 6
Join Us in Cleveland as We Celebrate 99 Years of Fellowship
As FOCA approaches its 100th anniversary, Cleveland is honored to host the final convention before this historic milestone.
Our city played a meaningful role in FOCA’s early growth under the vision and leadership of the Rt. Rev. Fr. Vladimir Prislopsky of blessed memory. His decades of ministry here helped shaped the organization that continues to unite Orthodox Christians across parishes, generations, and jurisdictions. Cleveland is a fitting place to gather under the theme One Faith • One Fellowship as we look toward our centennial year.
We welcome members, friends, families, and first-time attendees to a weekend rooted in tradition and renewed in purpose.
