The mission of the Department of Internet Ministries is to follow the commandment of our Lord Jesus Christ who said: "Go into all the world and proclaim the good news to the whole creation" (Mark 16.15). As a part of this ministry, we have created ICONOGRAMS.org, a FREE Orthodox e-card service.

As of November 2024, a total of 557,300 Iconograms have been sent out to people all over the world!

ICONOGRAMS.org offers its users with:

1. icons, icon descriptions, readings, and hymns which are copyright and used with permission from various sources around the United States
2. Options to fully customize greetings by changing color themes and fonts
3. Notifications to you when your card has been viewed
4. Notifications to your friends and loved ones that an Iconogram has been sent to them
5. Searching capabilities

Features available for registered users:

1. A history of the Iconograms you have sent
2. An address book for quick sending
3. An event reminder to keep you up-to-date on special events such as namedays, wedding anniversaries, and birthdays in the lives of your loved ones
4. The ability to tell ICONOGRAMS.org when you would like to have your greeting sent out

• Our website notifies the recipient via email, that they have received an Iconogram. These email notifications provide specific instructions on how to pick-up and view the Iconogram.
• Once the Iconogram has been viewed our website notifies the original sender with an email message.
