🎉 It’s Official — OCF Is Now a Federally Recognized 501(c)(3) Nonprofit!

We are beyond grateful and humbled to share some incredibly meaningful news — Operation Christian Fellowship (OCF) is now officially recognized as a 501(c)(3) public charity by the IRS.

This milestone marks so much more than a legal status. It represents answered prayers, faithful partnership, and the undeniable hand of God guiding this mission every step of the way.

From the beginning, OCF has existed to nurture a love for God, strengthen faith, and equip those within the Naval Special Warfare community — warriors and families who courageously serve our nation, often in silence and sacrifice. We’ve been moved to pray for them, to walk with them, and to make sure that no one loses their faith, their family, or their sense of purpose while serving on a SEAL team.

Thanks to this new federal status:

• All contributions to OCF are now fully tax-deductible.

• We are eligible for a broader range of grants and partnerships.

• We can deepen the impact of our unique programs, including the Trident Bible Initiative, Brothers in Prayer, Sisters in Prayer, Kids in Prayer, and our upcoming NURTURE Discipleship Program.

But this isn’t just administrative news — it’s a spiritual marker. A reminder that what God starts, He finishes. That the seeds of prayer planted years ago have grown into a living, breathing ministry — one committed to advancing God’s presence behind the lines and into the hearts of those who serve.

To every donor, prayer partner, advisor, and friend: thank you. You are part of this story, and we couldn’t have done it without you.

We're just getting started. Let’s keep building together.

With deep gratitude and expectation,
Operation Christian Fellowship
