Our Mission

to live and share the treasure of the Orthodox Christian faith within the community in which we live

 

Our History

The Coptic Orthodox Church is one of the most ancient churches in the world. It was established in the first century in Egypt by St. Mark the Evangelist, author of the Gospel that bears his name. It has maintained its Orthodox Christian faith, passing traditions down through generations, while preserving Apostolic doctrines and patterns of worship.

The Coptic Orthodox Church is rich with her evangelistic and ascetic life, her genuine patriotic inheritance, her heavenly worship, her spiritual rituals, her effective and living hymns, her beautiful icons, and her Holy Sacraments. She attracts the heart towards heaven without ignoring actual daily life.
