Father David and Matushka Rozanne Rucker with Metropolitan Tikhon
While Father David spends much of his life on the road, he is a priest of the Orthodox Church in America and is formally attached to Saint Sergius Chapel here in Syosset. Last weekend the Ruckers were here to meet with Metropolitan Tikhon. Father David served the Divine Liturgy with His Beatitude and was awarded a gold cross for his years of service.
You need to know that OCMC missionaries have to raise their own funds for their work. Incredibly, there are scores of faithful Orthodox missionaries like the Ruckers who take up this life and do this willingly and joyfully. Please consider helping them. You can learn more about Father David and Matushka Rozanne and donate through the Orthodox Christian Missions Center here.
