UNITY
FAITH
LOVE
Faith. Unity. Love. These are the pillars upon which our Church stands—firm in the Coptic Orthodox faith, united in the body of Christ, and driven by the boundless love of God.
Rooted in the teachings of the Apostolic Church, our faith is more than tradition; it is a living relationship with the Holy Trinity—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. As members of the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church, we seek God and His Kingdom above all else, anchoring our lives in prayer, Scripture, and sacramental life.
In unity, we are one family in Christ. We believe that every member, young or old, is precious and plays a vital role in building up the Church. No one stands alone. We walk together in hope, supporting one another not only in times of joy but especially in times of trial. This spirit of unity reflects the love of Christ and calls us to be His light in the world.
Love is at the heart of all we do. God is love, and we are called to live that love visibly—through worship, service, and acts of compassion. We strive to reflect the image of Christ to all we encounter, reaching beyond our walls to serve our neighbors, care for the marginalized, and bring healing to a broken world. Empowered by grace, we are not only called to be transformed but to be instruments of transformation in our community and beyond.
