Way Truth Life

'Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.'
John 14:6

If you’re exploring Orthodoxy for the first time, we’re here to help you understand the beauty, depth, and ancient roots of our faith. The Coptic Orthodox Church is one of the oldest Christian communities in the world, tracing its origins to St. Mark the Apostle, who brought the Christian faith to Egypt in the first century.

​

Orthodoxy offers a unique journey of worship, spirituality, and transformation, centered around the Holy Sacraments, deep prayer, and a commitment to living out the teachings of Christ. In our community, you’ll find a blend of reverent worship, rich traditions, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere where questions are encouraged.

​

Whether you’re looking to understand the structure of our services, learn about Orthodox theology, or simply experience the love of Christ within a community, we are here to support you. Join us for a service, attend a class, or connect with one of our clergy members who can guide you in your journey of discovery.

The Creed of Fath

We believe in one God,

 

God the Father the Pantocrator who created heaven and earth, and all things seen and unseen.

​

We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, the Only-Begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all ages; Light of Light, true God of true God, begotten not created, of one essence with the Father, by whom all things were made; Who for us men and for our salvation came down from heaven, and was incarnate of the Holy spirit and the Virgin Mary and became Man. And He was crucified for us under Pontius Pilate, suffered and was buried. And on the third day He rose from the dead, according to the scriptures, ascended to the heavens; He sits at the right hand of his Father, and He is coming again in His glory to judge the living and the dead, Whose kingdom shall have no end.

​

Yes, we believe in the Holy Spirit, the Lord, the Life-Giver, Who proceeds from the Father, Who with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified, who spoke by the prophets.

​

And in one holy, catholic and apostolic church. We confess one baptism for the remission of sins. We look for the resurrection of the dead, and the life of the coming age.

 

Amen.
