Greetings
Welcome to Saint Marys Coptic Orthodox Church.
Our church was consecrated on October 6, 1994 by H.H. Pope Shenouda III, Pope of
Alexandria and Patriarch of the See of St. Mark. Fr. Guirguis A. Gobrial
joined us in August 1995.
Although we are a comparatively smaller congregation, we are an active community of believers.
Accordingly, this website aims to promote the Orthodox faith and increase awareness of the Coptic
Orthodox Church of Alexandria among both its members and a larger global audience.
